Paper Project


In taking this picture I folded the paper back and forth, like you would make a fan. Then I held it up against the sky so that it circled around the moon. To edit I added a bluish tint and upped the exposure. I then made the shadows really dark so that it blacked out the background completely and upped the whites to give it contrast. I cropped out a lot of the bottom to off center the paper, and to crop out my hand. Lastly, I upped the clarity.



In this photo I crumbled the paper into a ball and started pulling different pieces of it out. To edit I gave it a yellowish tint and made the shadows darker in lightroom so that it gave it contrast and made the background completely black. Then I moved it to photoshop and used the burn tool on the right side of the picture so that the white was less distracting, but still contrasted with the shadows.
