Manipulated Photograph 1 - Cow

For my photograph of this cow in a field in Dunstall I wanted a colouring effect similar to Andy Warhol's cow pictures.  I have achieved this by using Photoshop CS4.   I opened the original photograph which was saved as a JPEG.  I then selected Image, Adjustments, Hue/Saturation.  I first selected RED from the drop down box which automatically comes up with MASTER.   By doing this when I then move the HUT/SATURATION levels I can obtain the results shown below.   The hue relates to the colour on the spectrum i.e. RED, GREEN, BLUE and the saturation relates to the intensity of the colour.   There is also a brightness button in here which makes the image lighter or darker.   I did two manipulations as I couldn't decide which one I liked and ended up doing 4 because one of my researched photographers is Andy Warhol and his cow images are vivid, playful and simple.   Again, something I would hang on my wall.   The final thing I did was to create a new photoshop document A3 size (I selected Preset of  international paper to get A3).  Using the Place option, I placed all 4 manipulated images and the original image.   Finally I inserted some text using the text tool.  I flattened the layers and then saved the document as a PSD and JPEG.
