These two photos were taken by my friend named Steven Su. I’d like to introduce him a little bit. He is an enthusiastic photographer and a current university student. Also, he is an enthusiast of bicycle. He used to ride a bicycle from Downtown Toronto to Downtown Hamilton in order to take picture of view on the way.
These two photographs were taken in the Wilket Creek Park where locates in the area of Leslie St. and Lawrence St. in Toronto. He snapped them in October. Also, we would get this information from the first photograph, which showed falling maple leaves on the creek and reflection of trees in the creek. In order to make certain what theme of this photograph is, I added contrasts and increased the exposure to this photo to make the color of maple leaves stand out. Additionally, I added white gradient in the edge of photo. The purpose of this action is to make the picture feel like it was setting for the story. The manipulated picture is like a fairyland where you are looking for.
There are a bench and a young maple tree in the second photograph. In order to build the image of a sense of happiness, I added contrasts and increased the exposure to the whole picture as well. Well then, I increased the green and red selective color. The reason of increasing the green color is in order to make the background look darker; to increase the red color is to make the young maple tree stand out. Last, I add the white gradient in the photograph to create the feeling of dreamy place. Comparing the original photograph to the manipulated one, you would be impressed by the second one which brings a stronger feeling of happiness.
Both of photographs are manipulated by Adobe Photoshop software. At end of manipulation of both photographs, I added the photographer’s name to appreciate Steven for providing two of his works.
