Today in class I learned that we can change/edit a picture and make it look better or brighter/darker according to your needs by simply changing the colour concentration. We can reduce red blue and green pixels and change the mood of the picture.I also learned about PIXILIZATION ( Pix=picture el =elemant)of how increasing pixels or decreasing them can impact the size and quality of a picture. And how saving them in different formats can result in information loss.And how pixels can impact the hard copy of an image. Now I will try and edit some pictures so they can look better. Editing the picture, croping them, so by following the rules of picture composition can really have a great impact.

photoshop-elements

Today we learned about photoshop elements.Apixel is the smallest element in a picture,every pixel has a hexadecimal number.Dpi stands for dots per inch.For your photo to come out good then you need a 300 dpi if your using print and 72 dpi if your using it for a computer.When you compress/jpac it will loose some of the duplicate information.Lassey compresses and looses some information and lossless keeps the picture the same.Then afterwards we learned about picture enhacement by using the levels tool on photoshop, and then we had to get an image and try to enhance or experiment with it using photoshop tools we learned.Note to me essay is due next week with the research folder.

Hexadecimal number system is the number system with the numbers being 1-9 on one side of a chart then after 9 for 10 you say a then for 11 you say b and so on until u reach 15 which would be f. The number system can start from 00-ff. (ff being the highest) if you wanted to go even higher you would have to start under section in the chart to the left.
