Sunset



Here is the original picture that i took of the sunset. I put this photo into photoshop and started to edit it. I decided to enhance the sun so i decided to add more lighting. I put in an orange spotlight where the sun is, which also lit the sky up in a more orange colour. As just having one spotlight made the rest of the picture dark, i added two more spotlights which i put either side but made them white, just so it lit up the scene a bit more. I then cropped and slightly changed the brightness and contrast just to finish it off. This picture could be linked to a story such as, "Best scenic views in your local area" or "British summertime approaches".

Traffic Warden

I edited this picture of a traffic warden by cropping it and changing the contrast and brightness. I did this to bring out the colours more of the traffic warden and emphasise his presence. I managed to capture the moment of the warden writing a parking ticket for a car. You could use this picture for a story like, "Parking Tickets Rise in Crawley" or "Wardens start getting tough in the local area".
