images in web design

The images have a very important impact on design a web site. The somewhat overused phrase “a picture paints a thousand words” is often used in marketing to illustrate the need for good images to sell a product.
An image can convey lots of information as well as the emotion. Therefore a good web designer will know how to images to manipulate the audience to feel what he (she) wants.  A great website design can rise or fall on the quality of the images it contains, which is why it’s vital to get it right.
Here are some of the screen shots of web sites:

Also Illustration and typography  play important roles for web site 

Designer and Artist David Cox

I think most people have to know about David Cox, the founder of Aevion.net, the place he posted and shared his graphic designs to everyone.

That is a beautiful mixture of photography with illustration in his pieces. Here are some of his examples: 

HDR photos in opposite way !

We usually know about HDR photos as surreal and artistic as they got high contrast with bright and obvious halos. However, the photos I am going to show here will give you a different view of HDR photos. They look so real even HDR tone mapping  was used to enhance their details. Here are examples :

Half Dome

Neuschwanstein castle

Spray road

Stone arch Bridge

Here is the link of the HDR tone mapping tut I want to share with every one. The tut is very in detail so you can easily make it. Enjoy !

Angus and Julia Stone

I got to know about this band and their web site from my teacher.

I am inspired and attracted by the vintage style in this website that can tell everyone, even a new person like me, this band is quite classic. 

The vintage style goes from the pattern of background to the picture frames as well as the text ' Angus and Julia Stone'. 

Go further into the other pages of the site, you would be impressed as it is like a room with furnitures and stuff in it. Stuff are clickable and they take you to another stage like News, Bio, Gallery etc. 

Another interesting thing is the sound. The sound of cows is quite funny but gives you a sense like you are entering a noble farming family ! :)

This is gallery page of the site

Kim Huyn Joong's photos

I love this Korean guy and his photo series about wedding. The colours are fresh with soft light that easily attracts viewers.

This would be an interesting part for girls who like taking their photos and post up their private pages or social network like Facebook, twitter or even this blog.
Photoshop has made some people incredibly different from their actual. Being younger, having a very smooth skin without any scars, are the simple things to achieve. You can even make up with Photoshop ! Thats simple and photoshop has helped out lots of people to be confident !
This is an example of using photoshop to remove freckles
