Pictures and 'Peños and P-Shop (Oh my!)

This week's assignment called for the retouching and manipulation of last week's images though Adobe Photoshop. I love using Photoshop. As you will soon discover, I was especially excited at the "hyper-realty" part of the assignment. That's kind of my thing. 


I only did two photo corrections/retouches. First on one of my overhead shots of the jalapeños from the last assignment. I adjusted the colors, then rotated the plate and duplicated a jalapeño to better create my clock-like effect.

Before.

After.

Then I did a correction on one of my "artsier" pictures. For this one I corrected the colors, vibrance, and saturation, and also cut some of the wall out from the background.

Before.

After.

Next, I took one jalapeño from this establishing shot of my last assignment...

...and I put that little guy everywhere. Inspired by a fake example of hyper-reality our professor gave last class, I began with a ferris wheel.

I couldn't resist.

Then I thought it would be fun(ny) to super-impose my 'peños into some of the photos my classmates turned in last assignment. I hope they agree...

"Coming in hot!"

Gushers commercial?

Not the face he'll make once he takes a bite.

Next, I decided to... well... Just take a look.

Jalphin, or Dol-apeño?

Ok, so I got a little carried away....


See you Monday!
