Photoshop practice exercise - Part I

Cropping, resizing, simple adjustments, saving for web

In your own blog, create an entry for this exercise and call it Photoshop practice exercise I.  We will use part of class on Feb. 11 and Feb. 13 to work on this.  Use the tips we have discussed in class and that are available in this blog

Using 5 images in our class space on the Journalism drive "Photoshop practice images," practice cropping and sizing images for maximum effect. Create 10 images by cropping each source image two different ways.  Under each image, write a caption that includes a credit (look in "file Info"). In italics below that, indicate what Photoshop tasks you performed on each image and what you were trying to do to tell a story with that image.

Notes: 

1. Your images should all be one of the following dimension configurations: (width x height) 332 x 220, 220 x 332, 135 x 101 or 280 x 100 - and you must use all of these sizes at least once
   
2. These images may NOT be distributed beyond this class and the assignment you are doing. They are the property of the Star-Ledger.
