Layers- correction. sept 21.

layers and correction is used to make a picture more dramatic.

you take a picture that is dull and boring and you use the burn and dodge tool to make the sky and clouds stand out and the mountains darker as well as the ground more contrasted

it makes it look darker in some areas and lighter in others.

in the end the picture looks alot more interesting and dramatic.

Duotone. sept 21.

duotone is used to put more focus on the desired subject.

I used duotone to make the picture contain only two colours. Then the blur tool to blur out the background slightly so

 that the center of interest stands out more than the rest of the picture.

leading lines. sept 21.

leading lines helps to bring out the main focus of the picture,

  using multiple lines that lead to your center of interest.

when you look at a picture and there are a lot of lines leading to your center of intrest,

your eyes are drawn to it. I went over all of the lines that lead to the objects in the red circle with red to show you the exact lines that help the focus on the center of intrest.
