Editing Image for the Album cover

For my album cover i have chosen the the picture below.



I have used Adobe Photoshop Elements to to edit this image. Below are print screens of the process of how i went about editing it.

I have used the magic wand tool to select all the unwanted areas of the picture and erased it.


I then zoomed into the specific areas of the picture, like the one above and erased all the unwanted details.


here again i zoomed into the image in order to erase all the unwanted areas and make the image more defined.



After editing the image this is how it looked. After this i took the picture and put it into the correct album cover size, which was 14cm (width) by 12.5 cm (height). I then added background colour to the image and added the text for the album cover. Then i added the arrows for the album cover as it is part of our house style. I have followed my draft drawing of the album cover to make the final one.



Above is my final album cover design.
