Oilify Emma

In this project I took a picture of my dog Emma. When I loaded up on my computer it was extremely clear but it was a little bit off center. Since Emma's head was tilting to the side, it made the center look way off. To fix the problem I cropped the photo so the focus was tighter on her face. Originally your eye was not drawn directly to her face, but her whole body, so cropping it helped a lot. After that I experimented with some filters to see what would look the best. I eventually found the “oilify” filter. I feel it gives the picture a painting like feel and gives her eyes a more drastic appearance. I thought this was a good picture to add to my portfolio because it shows my cropping and filtering skills.
