Making a college magazine cover page
For this I used Photoshop CS4 as in my other creations. I used a medium close up shot for the main picture. I cut out the background and replaced it with a solid color. I followed the left third rule for this as it is something that is widely used in magazines.
I later improved in it to have a orange background to make the text easier to read.
If I did this again I would have used a different picture with hair that is easier to edit into a simple background
