Task 1

For this mini task we had to pick a famous street photograph and go out with it and tell our friend to take photo of us so then we could put ourselves. I choose this photograph because it's busy, not boring and a lot is happening on there. To complete this task I used Canon 400D camera and Photoshop.

First thing I had to do was changing photograph of me to black and white as the original photo is also B&W.

Then I used 'Lasso tool' to go around myself to select me, I had to be careful because of my hair so I clicked on 'Erase' and the on 'Quick mask mode' so i could erase unwanted bits of photo.

.

This is how it looked after, I then could drag myself to original photo and place myself on there.

This screen grab shows what I put myself onto the photograph.

FINAL PHOTOGRAPH

I like my final photograph because when you first look at it you not seem to find me and that was the point of it because the idea was taken from 'Where's Wally?'. The idea was take from there because we had to place ourselves so then other people had problems with finding us.
