Tip : For better distinguish between before and after pictures, tap on the picture then at the bottom > tap on picture 1 and 2 accordingly , to swap between original and edited picture.
As you know from when i started clicking pictures, initially I didn't used to click pictures frequently, but by now things are changed, nowadays I don't leave any chance of getting picturisedπ. Whatever i see i feel like documenting it , whatever seems a good background to me i use it for my own photoshoot and so on. So this photo is of a village, I went for attending a wedding their and at a small distance from the wedding location we were going through this street and the wall there looked nice to me because sunrays was falling on it, so I asked someone who was going along with me, if he wants to get a picture clicked there and as I was standing near to wall to get a idea of frame or may be telling him the pose, I don't remember what I was doing because it happened very randomlyπ, that's why I couldn't even put down the jacket that I'm holding in my hand. He thought I'm asking him to click my picture and took the above photo then he showed me this photo and we then walked ahead without spending much time in clicking pictures as it was a single shot picture. But I didn't bothered much about how has the picture came, because I wasn't willing to get clicked at that time but afterwards when i checked the photo it looked nice and I regretted that it would be much better if I had posed nicely for the picture. Then we reached the wedding location and attended the wedding for which we were there and clicked some casual wedding ceremony photos just like we all do, means picking out phone and tapping the shutter button framing each and every uncle and aunties , without doing any camera settings or choosing a background , deciding the pose nothing just click, click and click.
Though i wanted to click the picture of that wall only because of sunrays falling on it but it didn't looked the way i was imagining it would comeπ₯±. Because i was thinking of getting some street type photograph with visible sunrays. But i think the rays was either not much brighter or because we clicked the picture on Android phone that is why it didn't looked that way i imagined , but i think still its a good picture.
Editing Breakdown
1. Adobe Lightroom (Available on play store and Appstore ) :
At first in the light correction as it looked a bit darker I increased picture's exposure to +0.56, then increased contrast by +13 , decreased highlights by -17 , increased shadows by +38 , increased whites by +12. Then in colour grading I increased vibrance by +14 cause colours looked faded in the picture. Then in colour mix I selected red colour and changed its hue & saturation accordingly to look like a wall of village.
Tip - While saving the image don't use save to device option and either use "Export as" and set it to largest available dimensions for better quality and then export it as a preset, so in future if you want to know what you had edited in a photograph , you can simply check it by adding picture to the lightroom afterwards.
2. Snapseed (Available on play store and Appstore ) :
Then blurring background in this picture is not supposed to be done because its a plain wall and blurring it would will make it look like a fake one. And I also didn't used skin smoothning in this picture cause i didn't used to do these things in editing at those time, but now I do. The wall behind was a little rough one and had spots on it which i corrected using healing tool. This picture was clicked using a snapchat filter and had a watermark of its name overlapping on the wall which i removed by healing tool only.
Tip: For better output quality click 3 dots , go to settings , look for format and quality and choose the value 100%
