Digital Editing

Digital Editing http://www.afreshphotograph.com/afreshphotograph.com/Index/Pages/Editing.html Here are some images that I have edited using Adobe Photoshop. Some are advanced techniques and some are basic contrast and blemish removals. Take a look, if there is an image that strikes you, shoot me a line. I’d love to hear what you think info@afreshphotograph.com Hot Highlights Portions of this photograph were completely hot - with no detail what so ever. Major surgery was performed on this image. A few times, I “graphed” portions of her skin to shape them on other parts of her body. http://www.afreshphotograph.com/afreshphotograph.com/Index/Pages/Editing.html#0 ee92e799-bc9b-4474-9447-47a141b8482c http://www.afreshphotograph.com/afreshphotograph.com/Index/Pages/Editing_files/Media/IRMGARD%20copy/thumb.jpg http://www.afreshphotograph.com/afreshphotograph.com/Index/Pages/Editing_files/Media/IRMGARD%20copy/micro.jpg
