Adjustment Layer and Filter
Adjustment layer: It is a non-destructive image editing tools allowing color and tonal adjustments to images without permanently altering the original pixels. It enable us to modify or remove adjustments and revert to the original image anytime, enhancing workflow flexibility and efficiency.

3. Practical: Digital Collage
WEEK 3 - PEN TOOL EXERCISE (BEST COMPOSITION)
Fig 3.1 Best Composition
DESCRIPTION: This was the best composition Mr. Hafiz has pick for my week 3 task. I have used the golden ration to compose this collage. To cut out the people in the photo I have used various tools to make it happen which includes using the background remover option, lasso, selection brush tool, object selection and also the magic wand. For the background, I actually wanted to leave it plain as I was scared that the overall will be too overwhelming but instead it looks rather empty so I chose to cut out some shape using the selection brush tool to add on some layers for my composition.
WEEK 4 (ADJUSTMENT LAYERS & FILTERS )
Fig 3.2 Edited Composition
DESCRIPTION: For this week, we were told to use layers and filters. At first I choose to play around with each tool first to see what suits best for my composition. I find that the fish should have a more interesting color as the fish itself in the composition was meant to be an intruder into the human world. For the guy that is sitting on the rooftop I added some outer glow for it as he stood off a bit. For the building, I used satin to create its shadow contrast, the same for the vending machine.
