To begin my edit – I first equipped the Quick Selection Tool accordingly. I then selected the three same artworks on the picture. I chose to only highlight and keep this artwork in colour down the fact I wanted this certain artist to be the main focus of the photo. Once I selected each one individually, I right clicked on each selection and pressed 'Layer via Copy'. What this does is create a layer of this individual selection. This helps for when I want to make the rest of the photo Black and white.
I then went into Image > Adjustments, selected 'Black and White' and applied. Because of my previous adjustments to the photo this gave the photo the effect I wanted. It made the artwork the main focus of the image; rather than everything else displayed in the photo.
Next I changed the brightness and contrast to dampen the black and white edge of the photo I have just applied. This continued to allow the coloured part of the photo stand out more and thus successfully create the edit I want. I changed the brightness to 23 and I changed the contrast to -50.
As a finish edit – I am happy the way my photo turned out. Although a simply edit; I feel like it is different enough to be eye catching and interesting. It is something different from what I would normally do but I have started to enjoy trying new things and these types of photos really do interest me; which helps the editing process.

I wanted to create a painted effect so here's what I did.
Did a subtle crop. Ran a levels adj. layer, layered on several textures and various blend mode layers. I've found that doing this helps create a painted effect. Removed some texture from the flowers. Cooled down the colour slightly. Added a slight blur layer and a soft light layer. Upped the brightness a bit and added white and black colour fill layers (set on screen and multiply) and masked as necessary. Saturated the red and green a touch and sharpened.
Textures courtesy of Jessica Drossin and French Kiss textures, also used 2 of my own textures.
Hahahaha, very old edit (about 2 years now I think) back from when I played around far too much in photoshop. For whatever reason I apparently thought it would be cool to look like a statue.
Well, it kind of is..
We did the editing for a semester work during two summer nights on my PowerBook G4. It was so damn hot these days that I've put a towel to protect the notebook from my sweat...
Highly edited photo I took in Jackson, California. I did this during my "I want to learn Photoshop" phase, but before the "less is more" phase. It turned out alright, although the best lesson I learned was to always work with hi-def photographs. Can't tell you how many times I've kicked myself for making this one so freaking small.
Legend has it that the Orange Road is the road to Hell. Those who dare travel to the end are ne'ry seen again. Some say their souls are trapped in the netherworld.
I, on the other hand, subscribe to the belief that they finally got the eff out of Jackson and never came back.
