Sophia J- Under the Bamboo Trees

This image was taken at the bicentennial gardens on August 27, 2016.
it was taken with a Nik Coolpix S2800.
I brightened and increased the contrast also use HDR Efex Pro filter.
This image could have been a little darker in the Background.

Reid C - World

I love the monotone vibes that this picture gives me. I edited it by making it black and white, cropping out some of the sheets on the bottom right of the photo, and clearing up some of the imperfections on the surface and wall.

Taylor D- Untitled

I didn’t have a specific name for this photo because I just played with the pictures to see which one looked good each other. Both pictures were taken at my house one night for another assignment. It could have been better if the layer with the window was taken at a different angle.

Waseem A- Fire Alarm

I started editing this picture when I first joined digital photography class this semester. I started out by messing around with different photos, and this was one of them. I sharpened the whole picture like crazy and then liquified several parts of the fire alarm. I used the pucker tool to give the alarm an hourglass look. This week I added in some sand to the “hourglass”. What I could have done better to this picture is to crop the sides a little bit more and darken the image a bit. This photo was taken by my iPhone 6S Plus on the E hallway.

Trajan J- The Crib

I call the Panarama the crib because its where i live until our house is finished. But i like this picture so much i did absolutely nothing to it. Thats how it turned out when I took it on my phone. It was kinda annoying to take because I had to spin all the way around. But other than that I it was easy.

Reid B.- Canon 18-55

This picture was taken in February at my house. I took this picture with a Canon Rebel Xsi. I edited it by sharpening some areas and also making it black and white. It could be better if I had focused it a little more. This image was apart of the closeup assignment.

Will H-Night Flame

I took back this September made it darker and just tried to focus on the flame as the main focus of the picture and the light
I took this with my Rebel T5 outside on my deck at like 9
I like this picture because of the light that emanates from the encompassing darkness

Asil H- Landscape jpg

I titled this image as Landscape. I took this picture 8 months ago. I took this picture with my Nikon D3200. I edited this picture by the HDR efex pro.

Joey B Deck/Patio Panorama

I titled this image Backyard/Patio Panorama. I took this from my backyard March 4, 2017 at about six in the evening. I used a Canon EOS Rebel T5 for this photo. This image is a panorama consisting of 27 shots. I edited it by brightening it up and replicating some trees and ground. This would better if I had included shots of all the trees so I would not have to have edited them in.

Ben S - Church

I like the selected image because it is a good picture of my church, which is important to me. The halo effect around the church gives it a nice feel and the way the perspective is warped looks cool. It could have been better with more around the church and some more sky.

Kristie M- Push Button for...

The title of this picture is “Push Button For…” This picture was taken at a crosswalk at the Grove a few months ago. I took this picture with my nikon camera and edited it by using a black and white filter with a mask and then using the brush tool to reveal the yellow in the button. Before creating the black and white layer, I changed the color balance to make the yellow more vibrant and stand out more. The image could have been better if I had removed the scratches and spots on the sign.

Ava W-Husky

This is a picture I took downtown at Railroad Park on a Sunday of a random puppy that me and my friend saw. I just thought the husky was super cute, especially with his blue eyes. I like this picture because it was kind of hard to get a picture of the puppy without it moving, but I finally got one that was pretty good. I edited this a little bit by adjusting the brightness and contrast.

Mitchell R.- Hairy Beast

I call this pic “Hairy Beast” its a pic of my tarantula I didn’t do much I just added a mask. I like how the hairs look and the glowing eyes. I could have done better at touching it up but other than that I really like it.

Satura D.- Next to the State House

This photo was taken in Montgomery next to the state house. I like this this photo because it captures the the memories I have in Montgomery. I also like the blue tint it has to it.

Maddy F- Beach

I titled this picture Beach. I took it over a long weekend in seaside with my Nikon D7000. I edited it by adjusting the levels and curves, and selectively brightening the bird a little bit. I think I could’ve made this better if I was a little closer to the bird

Mattie B - Shades Crest

This picture is titled “Shades Crest” because it was taken of my church during the architecture assignment. I took the pictures with my iPhone 7+ and used photoshop to blend them all together. I think this picture would be a ton better if it wasn’t so blurry.

Raven H ~ Glow

This image is title Glow because of the filter I added over a once poor photo to make it more artistic and intricate. I took this picture in downtown Birmingham in the window of an abandoned building. I think to colorful outlines are really cool and I overall just love this image. I could adjust it to make it a little better but I like it how it is.

Madelyn W- b/ham

This was taken in downtown Birmingham one weekend. To edit this photo I used an edit on vsco called C1. It could be better if all the cars weren’t in it.

Skylar J - JGS

The title of my picture is JGS. It was taken at The Melt about two months ago. It was taken with my iPhone 6s camera. I edited it by using the Nik Collection filters. I also cropped and contrasted it. It could’ve been better if it was a little straighter. I really like the filter on this picture because it gives it an antique feel. Also when I took this, it was my first time going to The Melt.

Matthew G- TRRAAAAIIIN

This picture is called TRRAAAAIIIN. I took this with my Nikon D3300. I was in New Orleans and a train was about to go by. I decided to get as close as a can to it and take some pictures. Resulting in this picture.

Margaret S - Tiny Planet Courtyard

This picture is titled Tiny Planet Courtyard. It was taken in the courtyard one morning before school with my phone. It was originally taken in a series of photos and meant for the panorama assignment. I furthered the concept and made the 360 view into a circular picture with the focus forming a small planet-like shape. It could be better if the lighting was even.

Yash M- Sunrise

This photo is called Sunrise because it is a photo of the sunrise from a few days ago. I took it on my porch a few days ago when I got home in the morning. I took it with my phone. I didn’t edit it much but I did bump the saturation up a bit. It could have been better if I didn’t have that lens flair. I thought it was a pretty cool photo.

Semahj R- Black Sunflower

I took a photo of a youflower a while back in the digital photography studio room with my canon rebelxs . i used a 50mm lens for this shot and i just chose this picture because i really like the bright colors within the picture.

Maddi S- Fair

This photo was taken with my Cannon Rebel t3i during the Oak Mountain State fair last year. The fair at night time makes for a great photo. The bright lights stand out more.

Matthew G. - Mail Time

This picture is called Mail Time. It is a picture of my mailbox at my house. I put a cool filter on it from the nik collection to give it a nice effect. I used my Nikon D3300. I could have focused it a little better.

Mahita T- Eyes

I titled this image eyes. I took this picture from my bedroom window a long time ago. I took this picture with my Nikon D60 camera. I edited this picture by using another image from a previous assignment and layered it onto this image. I blended in a way where only the eyes were shown through the window. I think this image could be better if the eyes were much clearer.

Tyler L-Samford

I call this photo Samford because it was taken at Samford University while on a Finance Academy trip on Thursday March 16th. I edited it by sharpening the foreground to give it more focus so people who look at it draw there attention to the statue. It could be better if the statues color was more defined from the colors of the back ground.

Sam R- Squares

This is a photo of a building made completely of rectangles. I changed the colors a bit and got rid of some stuff. It could use some work but I think it turned out okay.

Heath M- The Edge

The title of this image is called “The Edge.” I took this picture with my Canon EOS 40D when my church youth group went to Ocoee, Tennessee a while back ago. I edited this image by cropping, straightening, and playing with the curves toolbar. I believe that this picture could be better by darken the subject to where he is very dark or possibly gotten a different shot where you can see the sunrise more vividly.

Olivia H- Building in Pensacola FL

This is a photo of a building in Pensacola FL. I took this picture with my Canon camera and I shot the corner of the building because I thought it would be neat since both sides of the building are alike. To edit I darkened the windows to reduce glare and I made the image black and white. I also sharpened it and used the ruler tool to straighten it.

Jasmine C- Architecture

I chose this photo as my favorite because I didn’t really know where I wanted to go with it. I just started playing around with it and really liked the way it came out. I like how saturated the colors look and how it has a kind of late afternoon look. Its dark but not too dark. I like the detail on the stairs and how they look kid of aged. To make the photo better I would have taken it more level, its slightly slanted.

Anna Grace L- Color

This picture is called “Color” because there are many colors in this photogrpah. I took this with was Canon Rebel T5 downtown a few weeks ago. I did not really put any edit on this picture because I liked how it looked unedited. The one thing I should of done was straighten the image and crop it.

Maci H - Pretty In Pink

The image I am submitting to the photo blog is “Pretty In Pink”. I took this on Valentine’s Day in my room. The picture was taken with my iPhone 6s Plus. I used Adobe Photoshop CS5.1 to edit this picture and added the color filter with Color Efex Pro 4 and sharpener filter with Sharpener Pro 3: (2) Output Sharpener.

Brandon H- Church and the Sun

This picture was taken for the year’s first ever assignment. I don’t know why I just worked on it, but it’s pretty cool. The color of the sunset changes with different filters, and all of those look cool, but this way was my favorite. I edited it by sharpening it a tiny bit and enhancing the color and contrast.

Alyssa R- Mother Teresa

This photo is of a Mother Teresa statue in a cemetery in New Orleans. It was taken with my Cannon Rebel and I did not edit it. I think it could improve in the color area and the brightness. I took this on my trip to New Orleans two weeks ago and this was one of my favorite pictures.

Cameron S- American Life

 This Picture is called American Life. Its an abandon insurance building downtown. I took this two weeks ago with my NikonD5300. I took a tree out of the lower right corner and played around with the contrast and shadows and fixed up the sky to fill in the empty space where the tree was.

Everett M- Elvis’s Living Room

The name of the photo that I chose is called “Elvis’s Living Room” simply because it is a photo of his home, Graceland. To edit this picture, I lowered the saturation, I added a charcoal filter, and I added a vignette.
