Aloha

Photo Retouching is very common these days. You see images of pretty and good looking models in magazines, on billboards and wish you'd look like them. Symmetrical face shape, flawless skin, an hour glass body shape, perfect nose and everything is perfect and you cry and ask GOD why am i not as pretty as these skinny models? WHY GOD WHY? (sorry for being too dramatic), well all those images have been edited and retouched. *Pant* Don't be fool by it. Regardless of the condition, photo retouching can turn any imperfections looks fresh, brand new, and in many cases, photo retouching can make an image look better than the original one. So don't be fooled by what you see. Although the say "seeing is believing" think twice before you believe them.

The original photo:

Using clone stamp i blend everything and the water polo swimmers is gone. *evil laugh* You can see a beautiful blue sea of water.


I changed the color and insert a surfer in it. Using polygonal lasso tool i trimmed the image of the surfer and insert it. This technique have been taught in previous class. I have to admit i have never seen a pink or red color sea before.
