Week 3



This week wan mainly about selection which is -from my opinion- what you will use the most

We learned how to use the different types of the selection tool , the marquee, lasso and magic wand.

What the different between them and how they work and which one sould we use for the different pictures we want to edit.

Then we learned about how to edit the selection area by adding substracting or even reversing the border of the selection and we learned also how to edit the selected area by taking out some parts of the image.

We also learned about feathring which is how to soften the borders of a selection.

These are some of the thing that we have learned in this class .
