CONCLUSION

Conclusion

I think this project went well in terms of final images The blog has been difficult due to uploading difficulties which has meant that it has been a slow process. In some ways the blog has been easier to use as the upload can be instant and it is cheaper to create however it is quite time consuming when images wont upload or take a long time to load on to blogger. I have word documents with print screen images that i cannot seem to add to blogger which means that the project looks incomplete. Due to this i will have to e-mail them to my lecturers instead!
I have enjoyed using the skills within image manipulation and this has been my favorite project within the two years of ND. My final images are fitting with the brief requoirements as they all contain or stemmed from my own original photographic images.

This image is from a book 'Digital canvasses 2010'. It is a photoshop image depicting a boat in the water with birds flying. The water texture has been erased with the eraser tool in photoshop giving a movement to the water and creating texture and depth to the water element. The crows become a main point of focus due to the depth of the black and their positioning in the composition. Crows often symbolise death and may give us some insight in to the missing persons from the boat. They an eeirie feel to the image.
