Before really learning about everything you can do with photoshop, my general understanding for it was a program to add or remove things or people from pictures. I didn't know about the wide variety of photoshop's uses, and my vague definition of a picture that was "photoshopped" was that someone's head was removed or something. This lab taught me that photoshopping isn't just for taking people out of pictures, it has many other, and much more creative uses as well. In photoshopping this picture so that it looked lie the dynamite was inside of the carrots, I learned how to effectively change the image so that it looked convincingly different from the original in a way that would not be naturally possible. Using layers makes it very easy to place things on top of each other and to erase different aspects to make the two images merge into one new one. These techniques would be very useful for creating funny photos or to create eye-catching advertisements.
