My strongest area of work is the composition of each object and how they’re placed. Also, I was able to get the picture so that there was nothing left over from the background. I could probably improve on making my pictures look like they weren’t actually photoshopped and that they were the way they are originally. I could improve on putting shadows under objects and making it so that they don’t look like they’re just floating. It was easy using the quick selection tool because you could easily select whatever you needed to select and you could also undo selections that you didn’t mean to do. It was hard using the magnetic lasso tool because sometimes it would select parts of the picture that I didn’t want to select, and I’d have to deselect, and then it would end up deselecting too much stuff. I used the quick selection tool, the magic wand tool, the lasso and magnetic lasso tool, the elliptical marquee tool, and obviously the move tool. I used a different selection tool for each object, and got to see how difficult/easy it was to use each one. If I did this again, I would probably try and add a shadow to each shell to make it look like it’s actually on the plate and not floating/making it look like the picture was made in Photoshop.
