Infographic Idea

I think I'm going to do an infographic on Marketing Strategy. I would have the infographic go through the steps of how to put together a successful marketing strategy and offer tips at each step. It's a simple idea that I think can be useful for anyone looking to getting into marketing.

Making Quality Pictures with what I've learned

So this week I took one of my first pictures that I had to take for the beginning of this class and made alterations. I think that I improved this image a lot and will more than likely include in my end of year portfolio. I am also looking at getting the same picture but with less clouds and the sun either rising or setting to make it even better. This is my picture before making any corrections.
As you can see in this photograph It is really cloudy and does not offer a lot of color. Also it is really pix elated, I went through and reduced it. I also took a bit of time sharpening the pictures so that the letter on the sign are more clear before it was too blurry which if blown up to a larger size would be easy to see. Here is how it turned out after those corrections were made.
As you can see I made the theater the center point a little more by making the color in the building stand out over all other colors. I think the picture turned out well and I might keep tweaking it here and there.

Blurry?

Blurry images are extremely difficult to fix I think. The image I chose was an image from my trip at Motanoma Falls. It was a blurry picture as you can see below.
This was my picture before I made any changes to it. First off I made it into a smart object before I did anything else with the image. After I messed with the smart blur which helped a bit but not what I wanted. Then I messed with motion blur to see if that would help with the water but that one did not work at all for this picture. I used sharpen blur which gave me a good effect in my opinion. I increased it's blur so that it wouldn't look so rigid. I made it so that it would more blend together.
