(SOMEWHERE) Kopacz photography research

This is some of Jonathan Kopacz work, i have chosen 3 of my favourite photographs that he has manipulated and i have also found the original photographs before he edited them so that i can see the difference and effect of how he has edited the photographs.
in the first photograph Jonathan has edited the shading a light. He has taken out the shadows and increased the light on the girls face, he has also done the same on her arms. The sun glasses have been edited and the reflections in the lenses have been taken out and lenses colour has been made less transparent, washed and made more vivid and pure with no imperfections i.e. unwanted reflections.
In the second photograph the colour of the instrument has been changed and the lighting has also been increased and the shading taken away. He has edited the tone of the woman's skin and even made her look thinner by thinning out her stomach and thighs. He has added more colour to the woman by editing her skin tone to a warmer tone.
In the third photograph the colours have been changed dramatically, the photo has been made to look alot more colourful and eye catching. The colours have been edited to look deeper and crisp. The photo looks less dull, the colour of the snow and building have been boosted.
I collected these photographs from Jonathan Kopactz's portfolio: http://jonathankopacz.com/gallery/category/19-redesigned
Out of 10 i rate Jonathan Kopacz work 9 because i like the photographs a lot especially the third photograph. I also like how he has edited and manipulated the photographs and the final outcome of his work i think is good.
