Kinsey V- Leah

The title of this picture is "Leah". I took this photo with my Nikon 3000 in the park across from my house around 4 o'clock on October 14th. I edited this image by bumping up the contrast and exposure. Then, I used the Spot Healing tool to erase any blemishes on her face. I also made this photo into black and white and messed with the high lights. I think this picture could have been better if the person was more focused and the grass was blurred out a little more, but overall I love this picture. 

Hannah S- Milly Moo

This picture is titled Milly Moo because that is my best friends nickname, and this picture is of my best friend. I took this picture at Moss Rock about 2 weeks ago. I used the retouch tool and then I tinted this picture, so it took a lot of time to color it. I feel like this picture could not be any better. I made this picture for my friend as a present so I hope she likes it:) 

Allison S- Abandoned Charity Hospital

The title of this picture is called "Abandoned Charity Hospital". This was taken in New Orleans. It was taken with my Canon Powershot. To edit this, I made it black and white and added a lot of contrast. It could be better if the tops of the buildings in front of the main hospital building weren't so dark.  

Aleena B- Demons In The Dark


This photo is called Demons In The Dark. I love this picture because of the lighting and the filters I used to create the dark and ominous feel of it. This photo was taken in the corner of my room where my light hang from my wall. I used the crosshatch filter and played around twitch the curves of the photograph to make it darker in certain areas. I also used the eraser tool to touch it up a bit.

Ben F- In to the Tunnel of Darkness


The title of this picture is In to the Tunnel of Darkness. It was taken at the train tracks near the old Bumpus on the railroad tracks. It was taken on October 19th, 2013. I edited this picture by lowering the vibrance on the background but boosted the saturation on my Patagonia backpack. I could have made this picture better by adding more detail to the walls of the tunnel and taking out some of the color of the weeds at the lower left and right sides of the tunnel. 

Gauge I- Soccer Ball

i titled this image soccer ball. I took this image in my yard on october 3rd 2013. It was taken with a canon Powershot A4000 IS. I edited it by turning the picture black and white and then restoring the color to the ball. i could have used a ball witless scratches. 

IsaacE-Black Hole Sun

The title of this image is Black Hole Sun. The picture was taken in front of my and my neighbor's house, facing the sun. this picture was taken during the Night and Day assignment. I messed around with the color settings and made it look really cool, and turned the resultant greens red. I then selected the sky, and colored it a purplish grey. The edits made me think of the podcast "Welcome To Night Vale," so i made a transparent layer mask and washed out the eye design used on the "cover" of the podcast. I then made a white dot in the middle of the spot where he sun was, and then but a smaller black dot in the middle of that. I spent way too much time doing this.

Jacob T- Shadows

This photo is titled Shadows. This was taken a few weekends ago when me and a few friends went mudding. I liked this photo because the way that the person is shadowed on the truck and all of the other shapes and shadows that are on the truck.

I really liked how this picture turned out. I like the brightness in the stand but the it goes grey in the sky.

Hope W- Best Friends



The title of my picture is "Best Friends". It was taken at my house during labor day weekend. I took the photo with a Canon Powershot SX500 Is. I enhanced the photo, erased some of the blemishes, brightened the exposure, increased the saturation, increased the highlight, and sharpened the image. I think this could be better if I tried from different angles and in different lighting. This represents who I am because my cousins, my brother, and I are all extremely close. We hang out all the time and love being around each other. I enjoyed this assignment. I liked taking photos and deciding on how things could be used to represent me.

IsaacE- The Open Woods


The title of this picture is "The Open Woods).
it was taken behind my neighbors house.
I took this picture with my Nikon D3200 using an 18-55mm lens. The zoom was all the out, at 18mm, the f-stop was set at f/3.5, and the shutter speed was 1/60 of a second.
I highlighted the tree trunks, the bricks, and the large rock in the back, and made them black and white. I then inverted the selection, and boosted the brightness using boy the levels tool and the brightness option. I also boosted the vibrance by a large amount, and boosted the saturation some.
I believe that the picture could be better by removing the bricks, they just look out of place.

This picture is of the top of this tall poky, bush thing with the sun behind it. This picture was taken September 9th in my driveway. I edited this picture using Pixlr and I edited it by adjusting the brightness and contrast, making it brighter to bring back the detail of the bush. I then added scan lines, and boosted the sharpness to again, bring the detail back in the bush. I think it could be better if that one cloud on the right wasn't there. I really like the tone and colors in this picture.

I edited this picture by enchanting the overall picture, putting it in Sepia, and boozing it four times. i also increased the exposure, contrast, and saturation. This photo could be better, if you didn't see the flash from my camera.

I boosted the contrast and saturation to help define and bring out the colors. I also boosted the sharpness and the definition. I did this to make the fainter lines in the flower more visible and pop out. I would love to go back and take some more pictures with some better clarity and change the aperture to help keep the focus in the foreground.

Cori J - Smokey


It was taken at my house on September 2nd. I edited it on iPhoto. I used the enhance feature, used the fade to get it to the color that is is now. I also adjusted the temperature to -80 and the tint to -66. It could be better if I would have had better lighting in the room and if I would've used the flash.I love my dog so much so thought it would be a good picture to use.I think it turned out really pretty.

I edited this photo by enhancing it, saturating it, increasing the contrast, definition, highlights, sharpness, and lowering the noise.
