Photography Basics Ep.10 - Editing Your Photos Tog-Talk

    • Visual Arts

Episode 10 of the 10-part series looking at Photography Basics.

In this final episode I take a look at the editing options for your photography.  Editing is an interesting subject and people often have strong views on its pros & cons.

For most of us, editing allows us to produce images which are more eye-catching.  We remove unwanted objects, we balance shadows and highlights, tweak colours and adjust the final shape of the image with cropping. 

If you would like to know more about editing your own photos, you will find this edition of Tog-Talk very interesting.
