Editing the Contact Lens Photos

These are the stacked images of the contact lenses - amalgamations of 20-25 images each. I think they're looking really exciting, although of course I still have an awful lot to do, editing the backgrounds to matte black, making sure the colours are how I want them and chnaging the composition of them in the image. I am looking to make portrait orientation images - I think this will look better but also has the connotation with portraiture, which is fitting as they are such personal objects. 

Thank goodness I just did a photoshop course or I would be very, very lost at how to edit them. I am already finding it difficult to know how to do things and doing it to an acceptable quality. One thing that I am finding really hard is the decision making - I have never, ever had any instruction about photography or what theoretically makes an aesthetically leasing image so I am floundering a bit and wondering if my choices are the right ones. I am a little anxious that I will think that the image looks fine on the screen but when it is printed it will look completely different because I don't really know how that kind of thing works. I think maybe I will try and get in contact with the photoshop tutor and ask her to check it for me first.
