I chose to do my project on the student commuters. Some of my pictures are shots with groups of people and some are individuals walking to the train station or away from it, to their destination. I chose this picture to tone because for a beginner, it gave me a lot to work with. The top picture is the one I toned and the bottom picture is the original.
The first thing I did was crop the picture. I focused only on the four commuters and cropped the other distractions out. I made the commuter in the red the center of the picture because her jacket was the most noticable so I also brightened that up a little bit more. In the top left hand corner, the school isn't really noticed in the picture that isn't cropped. It is distorted by the sun, so I toned a part of the school a bit darker and made it look more like a building. I also sharpened that up more to make the windows and lines of the building noticable. Also, the sky was really bright but it hadn't touched down in the city, so I toned the two green banners above the commuters just a little bit to make them stand out more.
