Photo Story

This week we have been using photo story to create something like a power point for the place of our choice. I chose to do New York because I would really like to go to New York one day, I think it is an interesting place. I also incorporated photo shop into my photo story by adding text to a couple of the slides, brightening the color of the slides that needed it, turning some slides black and white and also making the pictures look clearer. I think that photo story is useful; but I also think Microsoft power point does all of the same things in a more user friendly way and you can add notes along with text to the slides.

In this photo I cut out one clown fish using the magnetic lasso and then duplicated it. I also used magic wand to cut out a sting ray, and then I used image sizing to re-size it. For the other sting ray I used the quick selection tool and left it the same size, then I changed its opacity to 73% to give it an under water look. I also  cut out two brighter fish using the magnetic lasso, re-sized them, and changed their opacity in order to make them look farther away. Next I again used the magic wand tool to cut a tiger shark out of a picture and move it into my photo. Then I changed its opacity, size and rotation in order to make it look like its coming towards me instead of away.
