Using the Clone Stamp Tool

Before

After

The goal of this photoshop was to make the image look cleaner by removing the majority of crumbs on the plate as well as the large wrinkle on the carpet near the top left. The clone stamp tool also helped me move the largest crumb from the left side of the plate to the right side as well as cloning more toppings on the pizzas. The clone tool made it much easier for me to remove unwanted things in my photo as well as duplicate things I want more of in my photo. This makes me want to learn how to remove larger and more significant items from an image.

Content Aware Fill Move and Scale

Before

After

My goal in this photoshop was to see whether or not I was able to remove the entirety of the brush and toothpaste on the tooth brush. I was able to do so by using the content aware fill tool. When I initially used the lasso tool to select the brush it warped the image too much to look natural. Instead I used the selection tool. This resulted in a more accurate removal. Once the brush and toothpaste was removed I then select the rest of the toothbrush and shrank it a bit making the image above. This makes me want to work on images with animals or people adding or removing certain features in order to exaggerate how they look such as removing the ears of a cat for example.

Healing Brush and Patch Tools

Before

After

I was able to use the Healing and Patch tools in the image above by removing the white dots spread across the projector. The dots within the photo distract from the object of interest which is the image on the projector. This makes me want to further remove distractions from other images as I want to make my photoshops as perfect as they can be and this tool does this perfectly.

My Valentine's Day Posters

In order to create my Valentine's Day Poster (above), I used three specific tools. First, I used the quick select to isolate the hands and to delete the background. I then used the brush tool in order to draw the body of the red guy as well as writing "Happy Valen Day!!". In order to make the  hands blend into the arms, I used the clone stamp, as well as changing the hue of the hands in order to create the perfect Valentine's Day poster. This experience makes me want to experiment combining my drawings seamlessly with pre rendered images such as the example I used.  I tried to create different tones and mood for each poster. The top is a HILARIOUS and FUNNY poster the subverts the viewer's expectations. The middle one reflects more of a propaganda or motivational mood within the poster. The bottom poster is just something funny I made. How can one enhance the tone of their photos to emphasize a different mood?
