TASK: Enhance your Advertising photos in Photoshop
Using the photos you took on Monday, put them in Photoshop and enhance them to make your product look more 'sellable'. Some of the things you might think about:

Homework:
Bring in some more objects on Monday, including objects to put in the backgrounds. If you have a camera please be encouraged to bring it in on Mondays. For extra marks, try taking photos at home over the weekend too.
