Photo 4

This picture wasn't heavily edited as i believed that it didn't need that much, for this one i utilized the crop tool yet again and made use of the clone tool yet again to 'clean' the dirt of the sign, i then cut the rest of the brick background out:

For this photo i started off by cropping the image so the viewer could get a full screen image of the picture instead of getting some of the background, then i used the colour contour tool on Corel photo editor and used the psychedelic colouration to drastically alter the images colour, this would produce quite an effect as the picture would stand out to any passers so it would attract them to the article:

Below is a photo which i would describe as ironic because there is a quit smoking sticker with a fag but resting next to it. For the edit i was unsure what to do because i wanted to go beyond the usual crop or colour edits, therefore i decided crop it then created several layers of the same photo and use a cutting tool split the photo in 3 sections so i then moved the pieces so they overlapped to create a spliced together effect:

Below is a photo i decided to take of copious amounts of fag butts left on the floor outside the back of Debenhams. After much debate on how to edit the photo i decided to take an unorthodox aproach to the editing of this picture and decided to utilize the clone tool on Corel photo paint. This was to maximize the number of fags butts to drastically alter the image and make the amount of fags butts seem more worse than it actually. Furthermore this isn't a very Photojournlistic approach because it is against the rules of photojournalism as you are duplicating parts of the image:

Photo Manipulation

People manipulate photos to create a different idea, this is done because people believe what the perceive in pictures so the media takes advantage of this and will either crop a photo, airbrush or manipulate it in anyway. This could potentially change the complete meaning of a photo for example, a picture of an earthquake in Italy, has been cropped, one showing a solider and a generator which insinuates that there has been a boom of some sort and the soldiers are clearing the ruble and searching for any survivors, another cropped version shows just the broken building and a crane this image shows that there could have been a natural disaster with the crane moving the ruble also again in an attempt to get survivors. An example of airbrushing would be a picture of Paul McCartney had a cigarette in one of his pictures, the cigarette was airbrushed out for the American public, this was done without his say so or anything. The last but not least, a photo could be unaltered in anyway but the caption for it could be something totally unrealistic to the events but the picture could resemble the event placed in caption.
