For this week’s Photo Blog, Freestyle students were asked to show symmetry through faces. To do so, we began by taking a photo of someone’s face. In Photoshop, we copied the images, then split the face down the center. In one, we copied the right side of the face and flipped it; in the other, we copied and flipped the left. We then made a “mask”, which when colored in, would make parts of the photo transparent, showing what laid underneath. As the original photo was underneath, it would highlight parts that were asymmetrical, such as the hair and background. The question of which face is which is answered in the photo itself.
