Shells

This picture is for the assignment  for object of still life. I took this picture with a warm light and a cool light.  I didn't really change anything about this picture.  I really like how this photo turned out and love the shadows that are shown in this picture.

Flowers

This is a picture of a tulip that I turned in to a black and white photo.  After that I took a colored copy of the same photo and played around with the saturation to make it have a a lighter color to it.  I placed the lighter photo on top of the black and white and played around with the opacity. I really love how this photo turned out.
This is a picture of two flowers that my mom had in the house.  I placed them in the water of the lake that I live on.  I played around with the angles that I took of this photo.  I also put a photo filter on top of it to help bring out the colors. I boosted the colors even more in iphoto. I also blurred the edges so that your eye goes to the flowers.  I really like the composition of this piece.

Greek Myths

This photo is representing the Greek Goddess Zeus.  Zeus is the goddess of the earth and the sky.  I took this picture focusing on the sky.  I made the foreground  darker to make the sky pop.  I also played around with the blue in the sky and burned the top of the sky.
This picture is representing the goddess of Alcyone. Alcyone is the goddess of sea, moon, and clam.  I took this picture focusing on the clam of this goddess. She is walking because when she walks it makes her clam.  I boosted the color of my photo so that the colors were more bold.  I really like how this photo turned out.

Night Photo

This is my night photo.  I played around with the contrast and brightness.

Environmental

This is my environmental portrait of my friend Hannah.  I put her outside because she loves being outside with others and loves her dog.  I crop the picture a little and burned the  garage because it was to bright. I really  love how this picture turned out.
