1. What combination of tools did you use to isolate the fruit in “fruit_combo.jpg” and where in the image did you use which tool?
The Combination of tools that I used to isolate the fruit bowl in “fruit_combo.jpg” is the magnetic lasso and earser. First I isolated the fruitbowl by using the magnetic lasso, outlineing the bowl and later dragging it on a new page. Then I earsed the outline of the bowl to make it more effecient.
2. Of the methods you used to isolate the fruit in the 3 pictures. Which method did you find most effective in this case?
From all the methods I used. I found that the magnetic lasso was the most effective in this case to avoid outlining little detailed parts of the picture. This tool easily does it for you with a click and a drag.
3. Experiment with the following:
After you make a selection in the menu and go to
a) Select > Modify > Expand
b) Select > Modify > Contract
c) Select > Feather
What do these do? Post a fourth image indicating that you know what feathering does.
A) The Expand Tool lets you expand the selected pixels in your picture.
B)The Contract tool allows you to contract(make smaller) the selected pixels in your picture.
C)The Feather Tool softens the edges of the selected picture and gives off a glow. This helps picture with hard/rough edges and can esily change up a look.
