Luiza L.- Natural History Skull


This picture was taken at the Alabama Museum of Natural History in Tuscaloosa. At first, the picture was not very dramatic, but, after making it black and white, I created a new layer and turned on the overlay setting. Using both the light and dark choices on the overlay, I created more definition between the highlights and the shadows in the skull to make it more dramatic. I think this picture could be better if there was more contrast between the skull and the background. On some of the extremities of the skull, where the light hit, the outline of the skull blurs into the background.
