Photo touch up

This image enhancement project is another idea of the artistic effects you can create with your existing photographs and some photo touch up techniques.  It shows how two photographs can be blended together to create a completely new image.

The process involved removing all of the first photo except for the faces.  The images of the faces were then converted to outlines, and give the appearance of being sketches.  The second photo was converted from colour to black and white, and then the contrast and brightness were adjusted to give a silhouette appearance.

Once the two images are combined it gives a final photo of the silhouette in the foreground with an enlarged sketch of the couple appearing in the background.

Photo touch up Projects like this make great personalised photo gifts.  If there are special events coming up you can borrow photos from the person you want to give the gift to and have an artistic creation that will make a gift that will be long remembered.

If you are using old photos that have been damaged, it is now possible to fix old photos, and even to do a photo touch up.  Digital restoration technology makes it possible to remove creases and tears, fix discolourations, and even convert old photos from black and white to color.
