Photomerge is an interesting tool on photoshop, the above images are made out of multiple photographs all combined together. The top two I used layer masks to colour in some of the figures, thus merging the two (or three) photos and the figures within them. The last photograph is made up of three photographs, each photograph with a slightly different angle, the camera having been moved with an overlapping scene. In each frame the figures moved, creating the effect of multiple figures in the photograph. Photomerge is useful in the fact that there is no visible line or colour change where the photos have been stitched together. Photoshop does well in gauging where the photographs should overlap and meet. I guess, using the layer masks and such it could be used in reverse, to take figures out of an image as well.
Metadata for the above images:
ISO 100
F/16
1/50
Experimentation:
I adjusted the levels, hue and saturation and brightness of this image and think it looks a lot better than what it originally did after the photomerge. The colours, like the blue of the sky and green of the grass, are a lot brighter and I think that works better for this image. The sky looks like it's got more depth and there's more detail in the clouds. I prefer this image over the original. I just wish I could fix the fact that some of the figures don't have a shadow.
