In order to create a visually effective image, I used my original photo I had taken and opened it for editing in PhotoShop. Here, I used colour filters to adjust the brightness and saturation of the picture, along with using editing tools such as the 'healing tool' to wipe out any imperfections or unwanted shadowing in the picture. I decided on this image (below) because it fits the criteria, shows a college themed setting and also relates directly to my planned cover lines and nature of the magazine. I also used the crop tool, to bring the focus to the girl in the photo, and also cut out any 'empty space' in the background.
After finishing editing the photo, I saved it in an 'EPS' format, which enables me to add it to my InDesign front cover file, in high resolution, giving a good quality image overall.
Here is the comparison of the photo below:
