In this blog, I'll share my process in digital experimentation, where I played around with different photo elements like composition, editing, and colours.
I experimented with how I framed my shots, testing out unique angles and focal points. It was a fun way to break free from traditional photo rules and find fresh ways to tell visual stories.
Next, I dived into editing tools to tweak lighting, shadows, and contrast. This helped me discover new styles and moods for my photos, expanding my editing skills. I also experimented with double exposures, this gave me a better introduction to the way I want to explore.
I played with colours to see how they affected the feel of my images. From vibrant hues to muted tones, I explored how color grading could change the vibe of a photo.
I focused on bringing out details and textures in my shots, experimenting with ways to make them more visually interesting. It was a cool way to add depth to my photos.
Beyond the technical stuff, digital experiments let me express my creativity freely. I tried things that weren't the norm, embracing the unexpected and pushing the boundaries of what I thought was possible.

In this image manipulation, I blended the sea with the concrete background, resulting in an abstract image. The desaturated feel adds a more immersive look to the composition.

In this image, I blended a path in nature with a path in the city, aiming to convey the diverse emotions explored through these elements. I felt that the manipulated image curated a strong narrative, adding depth and intrigue to the overall composition.

In this image, I aimed to convey the contrast between a concrete block of apartments (add sentiments about human impact on nature). However, I found that the overall composition lacked the strength I intended to portray.
Overall, this exercise provided me with a new perspective on how I want to approach and continue this task.
