One of my favorite tasks as a graphic designer (next to selecting typography, pickin' Pantone swatches, going crazy with the Pen tool, and laughing at ridiculous stock photos...) is the subtle art of editing a photo.
For a recent poster project, it was impossible to get the right photo we needed in the middle of winter. So, I took a photo under a gray wintery sky and used Photoshop to add a vibrant sunrise behind the truck, warmed up the foreground, and made sure to allow the sun to show through the windows and reflect off the truck body.
Before
After
Nothing more satisfying than a before and after!
