How to create panoramas in Photoshop. screen grabs

These are photos grabs on how to make a panorama on photo shop using the photos you have taken.
1. You open and select all your images so they all open on Photoshop.
2. You then go to file in the top left hand corner and select new. So you open a blank page which should be land scape and international paper.
3. You then drag and drop your images so they a roughly in the right place and lined up and in the correct order.
4. Then zoom in at the bottom left corner and double check that everything is lined up as good as it can be.
5. Select the lasso tool (that looks like a cow boy rope) and make a wiggly clerical around the edge so that it blurs the sharp lines out.
6. Keep going that until you have done all the time and your photo ALMOST looks like one.
7. Zoom in again and like up all the blued photos so that it matches better you may get some blurred bits but not bad enough to notice when its normal size.
8. Ones you have done, save as your work, so that you dont lose it and make sure its a photo file before saving.

Final Project evaluation

Final Project Evaluation

In this final project evaluation I am going to talk about the tasks, the outcome out this project and what I think overall and would improve in the future. 

Our overall project was based on new and old architecture and communicating a message thought a photograph. We had to go out and experiment with different photography techniques and try to communicate a message to the viewer.  We had to learn different techniques on Photoshop such as overlaying textures which really help when your trying to communicate a message because you can put two photos together. 

I had a lot of fun trying out the camera techniques such as juxtaposition, reflection and form, all these little things really impacted my work and change the outcome massively, all these little techniques can change your work for the best and they are so simple and really easy to do, you just need to remember to take time and not rush when your out taking photographs. 

I loved learning all these new photo-shop techniques,well their not new. Only to me! Such as overlaying textures, this is my favourite its so simple and you can do so much with it. I also really liked the pinhole effect, photo joiners and bringing panoramas together. I do find the Photoshop techniques harder to remember because of all the steps, but i also take screen shots to help me remember and to look back on in the future. 

Though doing this project i have realised that I prefer the older buildings, I think they have so much more detail and a lot more interesting to look at and photograph. A lot of the older buildings are grate for the techniques, such as overlaying textures, form and abstract photos, which are always interesting to try and capture and i think these are really interesting for the viewer, they have so much more to look at in one photo. I do like the newer buildings but i think they are a lot more restrictive, they are all focused around glass and i think this works well with reflection but its gets a bit repetitive, like your photographing the same building  all the time and i lose interest.  

We have also been on little trips and days out around Bradford and Leeds, on these trips we were using film cameras, colour and black and white film. I have previously used black and white film before in other projects and i have always enjoyed using the film cameras, but this project was the first time of me using colour film. I loves the final outcome of my negatives ones I scanned them in, the quality was so much better then expected, and in some they photos were grainy which i loved because its gives my photos this 90s feel definitely the one wear i am in the shopping centre.  

We did get to go in to the black and white dark room, which i have been in again previously but this time i got to experiment with different darkroom techniques such as solarization, burning negatives and many more. We didn't get a lot of time in their unfortunately because i would have liked to do more prints in their and try out more techniques. 

we didn't get to into the colour dark room which i was really excited about because i haven't yet been in there but hopfully next year or in the next project i will get another chance, but for the meantime i have been scanning my colour negatives in at a high quality so that i could get them printed professionally at a high quality for my final photos. 

overall I enjoyed this project a lot, i have learnt a lot of techniques and ways to develop and improve my work. Even if i don't get onto the second year i am going to use these techniques and skills though out my life for my own personal work. 

If i was to do this project again i would plan my time a lot more better and take more time organising my work. I would definitely do more work at home now i have invested in a laptop, i will be able to get more work done in a shot amount off time and to a better level because i have more time to concentrate on it.  

Justin Quinnell Pinhole effect

Justin Quinnell pinhole Effect

Justin’s work is very interesting and definitely unique, I have never seen anything like it, it has taken something old like a pinhole camera and created a whole new idea and concept with it, which I love.

Some of his work can be creepy like this for example, for someone that hates spiders this is a horrible photograph, I couldn't imagine doing this not even for a project I would be terrified.

I like the idea it is very creative yet simple and I love the perspective this gives you.

 I really like this one because it’s different to his other photos, instead of him eating food or brushing his teeth he is showing you the world though his mouth, which is always interesting.

What I really like about this artist is the way he has managed to capture his own views on the world, his ideas for this project have been completely unique and while looking through some other artists work I have never seen anything so original.

Justin is one of my favourite artists that I had researched; I really liked everything about his shots, and having the pinhole effected images is high in my favourites list. I don’t think I’d ever do a shoot in this effect, but I enjoyed looking through his images.

Panorama- Extra and Evaluation

This is an overall evaluation of my re-shoot of my panorama photographs.I decided to go out and re-shoot them because my previous panorama was lacking creativity and inspiration, it was very dull and lacked eye catching colour for the viewers and didn't relate very well to our project and theme.

These panoramas have been taken on the top floor of a car park in Bradford to capture the skyline and i thought this would be a amazing opportunity as it was really bright and sunny to take photographs. I also thought that this was a good idea because i didn't see anyone else who had taken this photograph so i knew it would be different from everyone else and jump out.

I think with these photographs you can see the virility of buildings that are in Bradford, i think that in the centre a lot of the buildings are old which i like and as you look furtherer back you start to see the newer architecture in the buildings. You can see this in the colour change, the older buildings are browner and darker but the newer buildings are brighter, silver and taller, i also think that the same is a lot more simple as is the design, i personally prefer the older buildings, they are so much more interesting and are amazing to photograph depending on your technique, the newer buildings are good for the abstract look.

I like how it isn't all rammed in, its half buildings and half sky which helps brake it up and not as in your face, you have so much to look at and to take in, it would feel overwhelming and tiring if it was all crammed into a tiny little photograph and it would lose its effect.

Photo Joiners- Re-Shoot and evaluation.

Extra Photo joiners

This is a Photo Joiner of a lovely blue and white building in Bradford as you walk up towards
the college, which some may not even notice, but i thought it looked so elegant and
pretty. I love the contrast between the colours and i think its a lovely buildings with an
ingesting design to most buildings that i have seen around Bradford.  I am going
to use this Photo Joiner in my group of final photograph and techniques because I just
love it. Its not perfectly lined up with i like. I like the abstract effect this has and this
jumps out at my creative side. I think this is good for my viewers as well as they can choose to
look and persevere the building as they wish.This idea and technique, is open to
opinions and views.
I think like with anything it could be improved with more background, such as sky and maybe even
some greenery to help brake it up a little more, i think because it is lacking these little
things it can make the photograph feel really cramped and crowded, but on the bright side
it is very focused on the main object and our project which is buildings.   

I decided to go out and do my extra photo joiners because I have done them in a previous year as well as this ones and thought they were really interesting and fun to do and created a challenge for me.  But i feel like i didn't do my photo joiners as good as i could have, so i went out to re-shoot them, on a lovely bright funny day and the outcomes out lovely.

The experimentation you can do this with is limitless and its so free you can do so much with so little.

For creative people like myself this is a very fun technique to experiment with.  

I wanted to use a lot of different techniques in my final images, so i had a virility of techniques.

This is my second photo joiner that i shot, this one is a lot more realistic and  easer to look at, doesn't take much effort or thought to look at and i think that something a bit different and outgoing like my previous one jumps out so much more to the audience and helps draw them in and make the think about what i am trying to show and represent in my photograph.
Again this one isnt perfect ever but that's what i liked about photo joiners its not perfect there's no pressure so you can have fun with it.  I also tried to photograph this with some people in it to show the scale of the building which is another technique we have been looking at and trying to use in the project .

Pinhole effect- Pudsey Shoot

These are the photos we did to represent pinhole photographs. We had to edit them on Photoshop instead of going out and doing it ourself as we don't have enough time and we don't have a pin hole camera.

 we had to manipulate the levels and contrast, give it a zoom effect and change the quality so it looks grainy to give it that pinhole effect.

This photograph was taken in Pudsey park this is the ice cream strand, it reminds me on a Chinese huts that you see in movies because of the shape of the roof.
I really like this effect because it gives it that old edgy look without getting rid off any of the quality and because it is done on Photoshop you have so much room to work with.
Even know you can only see part of the building i have photographed i still think that it is very effective. I like how the tree is coming in from the side and braking up the photo a bit, this adds to the creepy and edy effect you get when doing the pinhole technique. 

This is a photograph that i have taken in Pudsey, it is a side door into Pudsey leisure centre. I do like the original photograph but i do not like this one because i think it is too edited and the side of the door is too white and bright.  If i was going to edit this again, i would make sure that the white wasn't too intense. I would try and bring the detail out more instead of it looking almost like a big blur. 

I really like this photograph i think it is definitely one of the best ones from this pinhole technique. It doesn't look too edited and it hasn't lost any detail from the editing.
I would change this photograph i like the angle it help to enfranchise the size of the building.
