Select one image that you have already taken for an earlier project, an image in which the issue is the visual prominence of a figure in a setting. For this exercise you will use the digital processing methods that you have available on your computer to make two new versions of this image.
In one, make the figure less prominent, so that it recedes into the setting. In the second, do the opposite, by making it stand out more. Possible selective adjustments are to brightness, contrast, even colour intensity if you are presenting a colour image.
This image was taken during a December 2014 trip to Istanbul. The version here is how I developed and displayed it on my Flickr account. For this exercise, I have developed two additional images.
In the first I have added a graduated filter parallel to the skyline in order to further lighten the dark areas (by increasing exposure and reducing shadows). In the second version, I have added a spot mask over the figure to separate him from the shadows, bringing up exposure and vibrancy while reducing shadows.
