Wk 3: Digital Technology // Camera Raw Before and After Edits

Camera Raw is an incredibly useful tool for editing images before working in photoshop (that's if you still need to use photoshop!). It's simple and intuitive and allows the user to quickly understand what they've done as well as making it easy to go back to before the changes were made.

What was changed: Color correction and Clarity. Only a small change in these images mainly the brightness in the trees and the subjects jersey is different. I really like giving an image more clarity, especially in a portrait that brings out the texture of skin.
