'Raw' Images
Shooting with a raw setting on a DSLR allows you to process the image yourself to your liking, instead of letting the camera process it for you. When you upload a raw image to Photoshop, you are given more options to edit with and this lets you manipulate the image.
This is my original image:
This is uploaded to Photoshop as a raw:
I decided to use the 'graduated filter' tool in order to play around with the tones across the image and demonstrate how you can change these. This took allows you to adjust settings of particular section of the image, furthermore I changed the contrast and saturation of the bottom left hand corner of this image.
This is how the image would look:
To conclude, I am going to continue shooting in raw as is has given me more options to change different sections of image. I will use this for my final project images as in some shops where I will be photographing employees, the lighting with be natural and although this creates a sense of realism, it may not look great.
