A Student’s Reflection…..by Srey Bopea
Dear Melissa,
I am very happy when I enter to study about taking photos until this time. First when I study I did not know about: How to edit photograph, how to use a camera, how to use photoshop, how to take photo about bad picture to good picture, how to put the picture on computer, how to put film in a camera. But everyday I have understanding a lot about camera and taking pictures and I know how to edit photograph and how to use camera and other pictures that relate to taking photos. I want to be a good photographer in the future.

PhotoShop as an enhancement to photographs….
When you walk into any photo service center here in Siem Reap, you are guaranteed to see workers editing traditional Cambodian wedding photographs at the speed of light. In no time, they can “clean up” any photo, take out earrings and details with a blink of the eye. I decided to introduce PhotoShop to my students as an enhancement to the already existing photographs using Vignettes and lens corrections. After I showed several examples of Vignettes and lens corrections, I asked each student to choose a photo from the previous week’s shoot so that they could learn how to utilize these tools. They each choose which effect they liked on their photos.
Photo 1: Student:Chamnap

Photo 2: Student:Veth
This student creates a Vignette and uses a lens correction accentuating the atmosphere.
Photo 3: Student:Hen
Hen is very imaginative and wanted to express this in his photograph.
