Here is Cooper, the gentle giant we love seeing around Camas High School. I had the opportunity of taking Coopers picture in the studio. I didn't use a flash on Cooper just incase it shocked him in any way. I put down a black a large, black sheet of paper underneath him and a black curtain behind him so he would almost blend with the background, but the different shades of black would still stand out. The curtain did not reach all the way to the ground so, in photoshop, I used the stamp tool to blend in parts of the curtain and parts of the paper in order to take out any hard corners or lines. The key when using the stamp tool is to take the filler from areas that are not immediately around where you are stamping. The viewers are not immediately aware of repeated sections of the image, making it more believable and natural to the eye. I did not make many other edits to this image other than taking off the words that were on his bandana, also using the stamp tool.
