LO2 Capturing Images: Capture using a digital still camera

First I used a digital camera to take a photograph of a street in Banchory.
I then transferred the digital image via USB to a computer and opened it in Photoshop.
I resized the image to 800 pixels high.
I then adjusted the RGB levels and increased the saturation.
I then added a digital watermark.

LO2 Capturing Images: Capture & digitise from an analogue source

First I used a scanner to acquire a digital image of a Thank You card's design.
I then rotated it in Photoshop and manipulated the image.
The image was cropped, then a photo filter with no luminosity was applied.
The image was then cropped further and the RGB levels were altered.
I then applied the blur tool to some of the letters and leaf designs in the image.

Before saving I embedded my property rights into the image as a form of image protection. Then I embedded a digital watermark as well.
