Photo Manipulation is one of the ways a photographer could use to create an artistic illusion or deception. Widely used as an art form or for commercial use to create more sleek and interesting images for advertisements. Before Adobe Photoshop was created, a software called Airbrushing was use to create this kind of photography. Before we could edit the photo digitally, we have to take the photo first using a normal digital camera. For a higher quality photo, a DSLR camera is highly recommended.
Erik Johansson is one of the photographers who have practiced this method. He’s a full time photographer and retoucher from Sweden based in Berlin, Germany. He work on both personal and commissioned projects and sometimes he create street illusions. I like the way he manipulate and retouch those photos. It’s really amazing and unique. He is a very dedicated and hard working artist. He is ready to face new challenges and my goals as it will help him to realize it as realistic as possible. Although one photo can consist hundreds of layers he always wanted it to look like it could have been captured.
It also relates to my work as I love manipulating photos too. It enables me to create almost anything that you can imagine. Anything! It also can give me some inspiration for my upcoming school projects.
