Photoshop walkthrough for poster

Here are screen shots of what I did on photoshop to edit my photograph to get my final edit for my poster.

This is my original image

I duplicated the layer

I then edited the channels one at a time

this is the image after editing the channels

I then made a new layer

Next I edited the exposure, offset and gamma

I added a new layer again and using the burn tool I edited the shadows in the background

I then used the burn tool and edited the highlights

I went back to editing the shadows again with the burn tool

I then coloured the background red slightly and faded the colour so that it wasnt over powering

I then darkened the eye sockets and this is my final outcome
