To edit this photograph I started by making the temperature 66 and played around with the tint ending with 86. I wanted it to have a yellowy, bright, old kind of look to it. I downed the clarity to -30 and brought the exposure down to -10. These together gave the sky a purple color. I upped the brightness to 38 and added fill light of 55. I wanted you to be able to notice most of the detail in the flower so I upped the contrast to 28 and made the blacks 33. Lastly, I played with the hue colors and decided on bringing the orange to -21 and the yellow to 23. This helped give it more of a yellow happy feel. I think the message this image shows goes along with the lyrics. I decided on this photo because she is totally surrounded by the flowers which goes along with being among the wildflowers and being somewhere you can be free. I liked that the flower covers her face so she is anonymous but you can tell she is where she wants to be and has a smile on her face. I think this photo has a cheery feel but also has some mystery as you don't know where she is or why she is alone and you cant tell who she is. To me this song brings back happy memories of being with my family and being happy to just be around eachother. I wanted my photo to show how happy the little things can make you, like being somewhere you belong and where you can be yourself and be free.
