404's photographics

For this project we used photoshop and to be specific, the background eraser tool. The background eraser tool helps one remove the background from a photo, say if you have a photograph of a black cat sitting in snow you can use the tool to remove the background without ruining the subject in the photograph (Because the tool would remove all white, and since there's enough contrast between the subject and background, the subject wouldn't be damaged.)  Here's a photograph I took and decided to use the tool on: In this picture there's a lot of contrast between background and subject, and because of this the eraser tool didn't damage the subject.
