About the Image(s)
Our club photo challenge this month was to take a picture with our cellphone and edit it completely with the native cellphone camera editing function.
We were driving home last week in the late afternoon and I took several photos of the sunset. One of them included the Kohler Company’s three water towers. For the challenge, we were not to do any editing in Photoshop. I’ve included the original photo, as well as the version I submitted to the challenge.
In the native cellphone editor I straightened and cropped, adjusted the exposure and tone to bring out the roadway and to render the sunset to be more as it appeared.
I was so pleased with the result that for our Study Group I decided to clone out the windshield spots and the AAA logo in Photoshop, but otherwise leave it as it came from the cellphone editor, including the small strip of the dashboard at the bottom. It was indeed a good challenge, and a great learning experience for what is available to work with our cellphone photos without any additional apps or software.
This round’s discussion is now closed!

Audrey, What a nice image you have for us. I really like the water towers, I think they give substance to your image. That being said as I see it they are tilting a little. Your second image seems to have eliminated that tilt. I would not have taken them out as they add to the story of you image. The colors are warming and I like how the road seems to move through the image. Posted: 02/16/2021 18:21:23   Posted: 02/21/2021 13:52:50
