Landscape Adjustments

Landscape Adjustments

Today you have the entire period to edit Landscape photos in Photoshop.
First, pick your best 12 landscapes overall and place them in a folder.
Next, open up each one and touch them up in Photoshop to make the pictures look even better.

Below are some tutorials that will give you ideas on how to adjust landscapes. Please work through each one with separate landscape photos.

You can also do any of the following adjustments we talked about in class:
Get rid of power lines, garbage cans, and other distracting objects using Clone Stamp (S) and Copy/Paste.
Adjust the horizon line using Free Transform (Command-T).
Crop your picture as needed.
Change the overall color using color balance.
Adjust the warmth or coolness of your photo using Image>Adjustments>Photo Filter.

Please File>Save As each photo when you are done editing. Place these pictures in a new folder.

 Here is what is due to finish the Landscape Unit
1. 12 Photoshop Adjusted Landscapes from at least three locations with at least 3 sunset/sunrise photos in a 3*4 contact sheet. 
Call these 12 adjusted photos "Landscape Adjusted CS."
2. Your best Landscape as a .jpeg file. Call this "Best Landscape."
Always use the naming convention. Example: 1_Mitchellt_Best Landscape
