• Pencil effect Click OK to exit the High Pass Filter. 
• Next stop is the Image menu and then Adjustments>Threshold. This will turn your image to black and white and once again, there is a slider to edit the effect.

Gusto nating mangyari

Sa pag aaral na ito ay susubukan nating gumawa ng isang image na galing sa dalawang source na image. Gamit ang basic tools na layer mask, gradient at ang color match na tool na makikita sa may image menu bar sa adjustment option, para magiging madali at maganda ang kalalabasan ng ating image composition.

Ang composition na ito ay gusto lang natin na ilagay ang mga bato bato sa bahay or yung bahay sa isang image na bato bato. Marami pa ang mga paraan para gawin ito subalit sa paraan na ito ay madali at hindi na kailangan pa ng marami pang trabaho. Sa pamamagitan lamang ng tatlong tools na ito ay mabubuo na natin ang ating composition.

Simulan na natin…

1. Una ay I handa natin ang ating dalawang images na gagamitin sa ating composition. At I select mo ang image na gusto mong I merge at pagkatapos dalhin mo doon sa isa pang image source natin.

2. Ipantay natin ang laki nito sa isang image natin gamit ang transform tool (Ctrl + T) sa ating mga keyboard para mai adjust natin ang laki ng isang image natin. At kapag napantay na nating ito ay aayusin natin ang mga layers base doon sa ating gustong mangyari Pwede natin I explore ang dalawang image kung alin ang mas maganda ang kuha kapag sinumulan na natin ang ating composition. At pagkatapos ay lagyan mo na ng layer mask itaas na bahagi ng layer panel natin.

3. Pagkatapos na malagyan na ng layer mask ay pindutin ang Gradient tool natin at tingnan sa taas ng option bar natin kung linear gradient ang naka highlight. at pagkatapos na ma check at ayos na lahat ay simulan na ang

Pag merge ng dalawang image sa pamamagitan nito:

Pwede na I explore at subukan kung ano ang pwede mangyari kung magsisimula ka galing sa taas ang pindot hanggang pababa o sa gilid hanggang sa makuha mo ang gusto mong mangyari sa image mo.

1. At kung halimbawa magkaiba ang kulay ng dalawang image mo ay dyan na papasok ang color matching. Para hindi halata na ginawa mo lang sa photoshop ang image mo or makakuha ka ng magandang composition.

Ang mga papalitan mo ay yung mga nakabilog una, ay mamili ka ng source para sa gusto mong output na mangyari. Pangalawa ay kung alin na image ang gusto mon a magbago, .ay mga option yan ang mamimili ka lang at explore mon a rin kung ano ang pwede na mangyari sa mga napili mo. Pangatlo ay timplahin mon a ngayon ang image kung maganda na bas a pangingin mo.

Laging tatandaan sa pagpili ng mga images na gusto mong I merge ay halimbawa ang mga shadows kung may araw kung parehas ba para hindi halata. Isa alang alang lagi ang mga gagamitin na mga source mo kung bagay ba o hindi.


Salamat at hanggang sa muling pag aaral… God bless us all!!!
