Double Exposure

I created this image by first exposing the picture to the background, which is the driveway and the trees, and I exposed the picture a second time with the picture od the dog before putting it into the developer. The focal point of the picture is the dog. I like the look of the double exposure but I wish that it wasn't so dark and you could see the dog better. I think if I played around with it more then I would really like the look of the double exposure much better.

Close Up

No I didn't have too much trouble getting a close up image, I had to take a couple before I got the hang of it but after that I thought it was easy. My background is blurry but you can still make out the objects behind it. I like how you can see details on a picture very clearly in close up pictures.

Blemish Removal

Before

After

Yes I think this is a helpful technique to know incase you are photographing a person up close and they don't like their freckles or they have a bad breakout and that way you can easily edit the blemishes out

Background Change

I liked how the quick select tool made the erasing go much faster and easier, but I didn't like how sometimes if objects around the person were really dark it would keep trying to cut it out so it made it very difficult.
