How I made a GIF image that shows you my step-by-step image edits

The simple answer is, I used Photoshop.

Learning to use the software Adobe Photoshop requires another set of instructions so I’m not even going to go into that here. I am instead going to share the concept of how the image is done, and how you could possibly replicate it using the gif apps that you could download from your iTunes or Android apps store.

How I achieved a plain even colour for the floor

If you like me, live on this earth, shadows will be cast. It’s the law of nature. But what if you really want a bright white floor or an even coloured floor in your picture?

First thing first, plan to take your picture against a white or plain coloured background. You may remember these recent examples:

The previous how-I-did-it photo editing post dealt with overall brightening of the image, and how I converted the image to high contrast black and white with few shades of grey in between. I got a harder image with a more graphic quality that way.

In this post, we will look at how to brighten or even out specific areas of the photo, rather than the whole photo.

Here’s how I did it on my iPhone for the picture used in Look what I found hiding in the study!

How I converted this dull photo to high contrast black and white photo

Dull colours in the living room on a cloudy afternoon turned high key black and white image. 

An image, no matter how well composed with expressive subjects can fall just that little bit short due to the dull light of that cloudy day, especially when taken indoors. But with the use of a few mobile photo apps, a little bit of time, the mood of this photo has lifted from drab and dull to spare but eye-catching.

Here’s how I did it on my iPhone for the colour to black and white conversion of the recent A third black, two thirds white post.

Donna and the cuddly panda

Mr P had to travel for work in the last week of July. This is a picture he took at the Chengu Shuangliu International Airport, China, with his Samsung Galaxy S2 smartphone, so please pardon the blurry graininess of the image. :P

How I made this mobile photo with an unusual POV an abstract image

Just an exercise to make the lines more obtrusive to the eye than the subject.

I took a picture which I thought was ideal for the theme of lines, but the resulting image ended up sub-optimal in the brightness and clarity. Here is how mobile photo editing “saved” the picture and gave it a different life as an abstract image.

Following the tutorial, I also have more photographs of the same subject from different POVs ;)

How I dramatised this mobile photo for Instagram

The future looks bright and no stink-eye cat will get in my way!!

An image, no matter how well composed with expressive subjects can fall just that little bit short due to the dull light of that cloudy day. But with the use of a few mobile photo apps, a little bit of time, the mood of this photo has lifted from drab and dull to bright and dynamic.

Here’s how I did it on my iPhone for the colour version of the recent High Alert Cat post.

Masterpiece, it’s all dependent on perspective

Another multiple exposure up there. Yup, that’s Donna still getting used to her new crate, so you can see a bit of unease peeking through in her eyes and eyebrow.

Digital artistry is not restricted to a certain age group. Meet Grandpa, who creates masterful pixel art on his computer everyday.

Memory

 

 

 

I may fade from this world,
I may be far from home,
Remember me in flowers,
Under trees where I have roamed.

 

 

 


I find it hard to feel a connection with abstract work. But it is pretty fun to experiment with multiple exposures when it comes to abstract photography. I find more meaning that way. This set of pictures is heavily influenced by Sara Byrne.

The original four black and white images I intended to use for this post before I decided to do a composite.





You’ll agree that the composite is more interesting right? I thought the colour versions of the double exposures were quite interesting by themselves but stripped of colour, some of them do need the composite to give it extra oomph!

All colour versions may be found on Instagram. :) Or click on the images above to see their corresponding colour version.
