This is a picture I found on Google of Jacks Brasserie in my local town, I decided to test the types of skills I have whilst using photoshop before editing my own pictures in order for me to know what would exactly suit my target audience and their interests.
The original image:
This is the original image of Jacks that I found from Google. This is a clever angle to take a picture at as it covers all main areas of the business, including the bar, restaurant and seating area and the decoration that is flowers. However, the lighting of this image can appear to be too yellow and therefore be less appealing to the target audience. It looks less sophisticated and takes away the brightness on the bottom of the bar and the top where the bottles are stacked onto shelves. I think that this contrast doesn't work and they should stick to a simple, subtle lighting approach and just use either bright black and white contrast or the yellow lighting on it's own.
The edited image:
I edited this image in photoshop by using a variety of techniques. The main settings that I changed were the brightness/contrast, colour balance, hue saturation, vibrance etc. This allowed me to be able to show the image in a different light completely, going from the original image to he restaurant looking more sophisticated and aimed at adults. The section with all the bottles on the shelves now stands out more compared to how it was against the very bright image originally. By changing this, it allows the bar area to look more appealing and also the contrast on this edited image takes away from the lighting looking too yellow compared to bright and appealing.
