For this assignment we had to take a picture and manipulate it using GIMP. In the original picture there was a background, but when I went through and edited it I took out the background, and made it all black. Also the hood of the car had shine on it that didn't look very appealing, so I went through and removed some of the excess shine. Then I also tinted the glass of the car to make it look at little darker. And lastly I went through and brightened the colors of the car to ad some appeal to it.
I learned a little bit more about how to actually use GIMP. It was a very interesting assignment because I would have never thought you could change a picture so much. I wanted to know how to cut the background out of a photo and now I know how! This assignment was very useful and I feel as though I have a better grip on using GIMP.
