Photo editing

I chose to edit my photos before I put them in my magazine. I wanted to remove the background and change it to the same colour as my magazine page to make it blend in and look professional. I used Adobe photoshop to do this.

Firstly I removed the red eye on the photos by using the red eye tool and selecting the eye.

Then I used the magnetic lassoo tool to detect the edge of the photos. I then copied the cutout of my characters onto a new document. I then filled in the background with the colour that was going to match the background of my page.

This is an example of what a photo was like before I edited it.

This is what the photo looked like when I removed the red eye and cut it out and recoloured the background
