EXERCISE I : PERSONAL PHOTO 1

I have done my exercise 1 which is I'm doing it when I'm in class with guide by Madam Lydia. This is my first time retouching my photo using Photoshop.

First, I choose vibrance and saturation tool to adjust the colour of my photo. 

Then, I use curves tool to make it balance. 

After that, I use brightness and contrast tool to adjust the perfect colour to my photo so it won't look so dark or pale. 

As you can see, I play with the variation and I chose midtone colour to my photo.

Last but not least, I use paintbrush tool and make my background of the photo in black and white.

After.
