All my edits for Season 2, Week 1 @photogame "EDIT MY PICTURES"

The Week 1 of Season 2 on Hive account@photogames is coming to its end. My favorite #FixItFriday rebranded to #EditMyPictures, but all the fun is still the same. Here I collect all my edits of the photostars' photos.

Conundrum Springs

BEFORE.
Here is an HDR photo from Conundrum Springs, Colorado by Hive account@aweber. That is a kind of landscape I like!

AFTER.
First of all, I made some basic edits like color balance and levels. Then I dodged/burned a bit on the hills and mountains. And finally, I have added a bit more steam from this hot spring. I thought about cropping off the lower part of the shot. However, I like it more as it is originally. The background adds depth to this photo.

Attack of the 50 Foot Jarvie

BEFORE.
This fun portrait by Hive account@jarvie is as good as it is.

AFTER.
However, when I first saw this shot, I felt I need to do something different of it. So, here is my first photo manipulation in Hive account@photogames.

Brasov

BEFORE.
Hive account@vmoldo came up with an all-around view from the center of his city. The players could work with all the images or select some of the frames.

AFTER.
I decided to make a traditional panorama, and I selected just some of the frames. There were lots of colors, and I found that black and white allows composing everything together way better.

St. Mary's Basilica

BEFORE.
Architectural photo by Hive account@sjarvie5 also is good already from camera. I was even puzzled how could I edit it.

AFTER.
Here I corrected the perspective distortions, pumped up the colors a bit, made the sky darker and cleaned up some litter on the road.

Future is here

BEFORE.
With this shot Hive account@skiesandsports asked the players to show him how we imagine Singapore in the future.

AFTER.
The task itself meant some photo manipulations. However, instead of making a futuristic landscape with the skyscrapers, etc., I decided to make subtle changes. Let's imagine antigravs are discovered and widely implemented in the nearest future.

Lake District

BEFORE.
Hive account@vtravels asked the players to edit a sunset photo from one of her favourite spots in the Lake District, UK. I love this reflection. The ducks are nice as well )
