Irais B-C - Sunrise In Fall

 I named the photo “Sunrise in Fall.” It was taken outside of my apartment home in the early morning while I waited for my bus to arrive. It was taken on my iPhone 14 with the regular camera setting. I edited the photo by removing the cars and making the background darker than the tree and the sky since those two were my main points. I also added some grain for texture. I think it could have been better if I could add more orange to the leaves but at the same time allow the green trees to stand out in their own way. Other than that I quite enjoy looking at the picture, I think it’s very pretty. 

Hayden C - Fluff is Afraid

The title of this photo is “fluff is afraid” and it is of my friend’s cat Fluff before we left to go to the renaissance fair in Florence, Al, with my Canon camera. Fluff is an odd cat, she’s afraid of most things for what is truly no reason. (once I tried to play with a string with her and she was so scared of it she backed into the wall and made a loud thud). I edited it first by adjusting some of the colors to make everything warmer and the shadows not as dark, while also attempting to soften any areas that were overexposed. After that, I spent most of my time attempting to patch the blown out portions on the floor in the background from where the sun is shining. It’s not too bad, but if you look close enough to the background you can see it. Once done with that, I went back and turned up the warm tone just a smidge more since it still felt a little dull and brightened her eyes so you could see the green in them.I wish the background didn’t look like that, but there’s only so much I can do in the end.

 

Ellie B- Godzilla

The title of my image is Godzilla. It was taken at The University of Tennessee in Knoxville on July 18, 2024. It was taken on my iphone. I heightened the contrast between the darks and the lights of the picture. I also cropped it to better focus on the subject. I think it could have been better if I took it on a higher quality camera. I took this as a project for an architectural summer camp and it was originally supposed to show scale for the paper model shown in it.
 

Finley B- Zach Bryan Song

 This picture is called a “Zach Bryan Song.” I captured the photo at the beach this summer while the sun was setting. I made it very pink and bright. I should have taken the picture from a better angle.

Milo B- Tip Top

This picture is called Tip Top. It was taken on October 5th, at the abandoned Tip Top Grill in Bluff Park. It was taken with my iPhone 14 Pro Max. I applied a filter called Paint Daubs to make it look like it was a painting. The clouds could be a little bit more in focus, because the clouds are supposed to be the main subject. 

 

Rachel N - Flowers

This photo is called Flowers. I took it on September 24, 2024. I took it with my iPhone 15 ProMax. I didn’t edit the photo. It would be better if I edit it though. It was taken to show my friend what I do on the weekends.

Kaleb P- The Friends during the Fire Drill

 The photo's title is “The Friends during the Fire Drill”, this was taken at Hoover High School on October 4, 2023. I did not edit the photo at all it could have been better if some random person’s feet were not in the photo, my and friends got bored during the fire drill and we decided to take this photo and I have kept it since. 

Tristen P- Sword Keychain Collection

 The photograph is titled "Sword Keychain Collection 1" and was captured in a nighttime setting within my room. It was taken using a Nikon camera mounted on a tripod, and illuminated with glow sticks. During post-processing, brightness was enhanced while contrast and shadows were reduced. However, there was an unintended blur toward the latter part of the image which I regret.

Rihanna C- Chill Vibes

I like this photo because it gives off chill vibes , I took this photo during a very bad raining night at work I would say taking pictures really wasn't my thing at first but since I've explored traveled and even just been at work i've experience more about pictures and just enjoyed taking them learning there are different edits , angles and even effects you could use on pictures really opened me up more about them . I love rainy days . Just chill days . I feel like the sleep and the energy is so much better at night the world is so quiet . 

 

Davian R- Davian

  Davian is the title of the imagine selected. It was taking last Saturday and it was taking at my house before homecoming. It was taken with a iPhone 12 mini. I realy only made the sun pop more in the background. I could have and some other type of lighting to the picture while taking it.

Amaya T- Murder Mystery

The title of the picture is Murder mystery. I took this picture on my window sill on August 17th 2024.The picture was taken with my Iphone 15 plus. I edited this picture by slightly increasing the brilliance, black points, and highlights and decreasing the Exposure,shadows,Brightness,and contrast.The picture could be better if there wasn’t a slight reflection in  the window.  

 

Caroline S - Auburn University

 The title of my image is “Auburn University” because it was taken in Auburn a few weeks ago when my family and I visited for the game. This image was taken with my phone and I edited by brightening it, turning the saturation slightly down, and sharpening it. This picture would be better if the building did not look so unusually vibrant after I edited it. This image was taken after we watched the Auburn game against Arkansas, when we were exploring the campus.

Javier O- Formation

 The title of this image is Formation. It was taken near my local gas station by where I live and I took this photo around a week ago. It was taken with my smartphone and I edited it by making the sky more realistic and added a cool filter. I think it could have been better without the trees but if I removed them then the image would probably lose its style a bit. Overall this is a pretty good image.

Reagan M - Red and Blue

The title of my image is “Red and Blue”. It was taken at my house in September. It was taken with a Canon EOS 5D Mark III. I edited this photo by using the Camera Raw Filter first. Once I edited that, I painted on top of it using the brush settings in Photoshop. It would be better if I shot the photo differently. This is an image of my sister holding up two glowing spheres.

 

Rosalyn L- Pumpkin

 This picture is titled “Pumpkin” This picture was taken in my old best friends car at childrens hospital parking lot on October 5th, 2024. This picture was taken on my phone with A couple seconds saturation to it. The way i edited this picture was by adding color and adding a grain color to it to make it pop more. This picture can be better if i were to take a better angle. 

Dani H- Natura Beauty

 The title of this photo is Natural Beauty. This photo was taken in my living room before my niece went to school. This was taken with my phone. I had to make the photo a little darker and longer with her skin. Tone and fix parts of her hair and take an outlet off the back wall. If I could have fixed more part of her hair in the back. I call this photo natural beauty because that is what it is the way she smiles how her eyes just lit up.

Angel H- Soccer Net

This picture was taken behind a Saint Peters Church, and it was taken sometime last year. The image was taken with my phone. I edited the picture by making it seem more like a 90s type of image. I gave it dark shadows, I decreased the brightness and contrast, I also cropped the image. I could’ve probably made it better by giving it less lighting, and removing some trees.

 

Joshua N- Oil Lamp

 The image I took is called “Oil Lamp,” and I took it on my side porch on September 24th. I used a Nikon D5100, and started editing it in photoshop. I started editing it by increasing the clarity to see the condensation in the lamp, then made it warmer to see the oil better. I probably could have lined the lamp up better with the sun, but am very happy with the finished result.

Angel M- Cake with Candles

 This image was taken at home in October, capturing a small piece of cake with candles burning brightly. I edited it to capture and emphasize the glow of the candles and I kept the background dark to make the light stand out even more. I think the contrast between the darkness in the background and the light gives the image a striking yet simple appearance.I could have made the image better by using a different lighting angle to show more detail.

Markus M- Morning But Odd

This picture is called “Morning But Odd”. I titled it that because it gives off an eerie feeling thanks to the darkness surrounding the bright entrance. I took this picture in my apartment complex in the morning while I was taking out of my dog, which isn't easy if you have a large, anxious, hyper dog that tugs his leash when he sees and living or non-living thing. I took the picture on my phone, which is an iPhone 13. I edited it in class, I believe the next day or the day after, on Photoshop. I don't think I could do better with it, I just did my best to use the materials I had on hand, so this is just the best I can do. And that's all about this picture it was easy to shoot and edit it.

 

Ethan S- Mirrored Life / Mirrored Fife

 This image is titled Mirrored Life / Mirrored Fife as it is a mirror image of my bedroom wall with a metal poster of Barney Fife from The Andy Griffith Show. I took it in my bedroom about two months ago for the About Me assignment at my mother’s house. I used a Nikon D40 DSLR Camera to take this picture. I edited color, sharpness, added a vignette, and messed with the lighting a little bit. I wish I had a little bit of a better angle on the image but otherwise it’s pretty good. I don’t have any extra info, but watch The Andy Griffith Show, it’s great.

Samantha M - Rackigans

  This picture, titled “Rackigans”, a play on the word “hooligans”, was taken at the Hoover Band’s first BOA performance this competitive season after the band had made finals and was waiting for their results. After being put in a single file line, the picture shows members of the percussion rack group very not in a line, acting goofy because it was 10:45pm and we were ready to go home since we had been going for 15 hours straight. It was taken from my iPhone and in a rush because the rack boys were moving around quickly (they are hard to capture because of their erratic sense of energy and spontaneous silly poses). It did not help that our environment was dark out so the phone had to work a little harder for a fuzzy picture. Taking this differently I would have kept my hand a little more still so movement would not have been a part of the thing the phone was working against. I edited this with crop and a bring down in warmth. To me, these three convey what band is supposed to be about - having fun and living life together.

Davis M- Untitled

I took this picture in my garage last week, I took it with my phone, and edited it, i edited the contrast and brightness, and tweaked the image to make it look a little darker. I think i could make it better by somehow removing all of the glare and it maybe not being on my wrist

 

Rachel S- Double Luck

 My photo is titled “Double Luck.” I chose this name because rainbows are associated with luck, and this is the first time in my life that I have witnessed a double rainbow in person. I took it at Montmorency Falls in Québec, Canada. It was taken with my phone. I edited it by increasing the contrast slightly to make the rainbow colors pop more. I also cropped it to get rid of the stranger’s hands in the photo. I think it could be better if I didn't increase the contrast of the rock. The contrast most definitely helped with the colors of the rainbow but it made the rocks look yellow. Even though the rocks were already a less than appealing color, it made them more noticeable. 

Calliope T- Cats1

 This Image is called “Cats1” because it’s a picture of cat figures. It was taken October 1st, 2024 on my front porch. I took it with my Canon EOS Digital Rebel XSi. I think it could be better if I had put some of the light in the middle or bottom, and not just on the top. I edited it by darkening the image a little bit and adding a purple hue to the picture. I like how this picture turned out.

Cordel W- Day and Night

This photo was taken at a party I can't remember the date it was taken. It was taken with an iPhone. I edited with the Photoshop App. I think it could of been better if I made it look more into a 3d type form.

 

Sadie S- Swimmer

The title of the selected image is “Swimmer”. It’s a photo that i took of my little brother when he was at swim school. It was taken with my Iphone 12. I edited it using the camera raw filter and making adjustments to tint, saturation, noise, and light. I think it would be better if there wasn’t so many distractions in the background. 
 

Nicholas T - Lantern

 The title of the photo is “Lantern”. I took it on September 19, 2024 outside of my garage. The photo was taken with my DSC-W800. I increased the brightness of the light and increased the shadows and contrast. I may have overdid the lighting.

Kaitlyn W- Under the Sea

 The title of this beauty is under the sea, it was taken in my pantie with a candle light and it was the darkest room in the house. It was taken with my camrae not my phone because my phone could never get this kind of quality. If the candle was bigger it would have had a different turn out. I didn't like the way it just looked like a really random top of the pineapple s I would have backed it up so you could see the detail of the whole entire pineapple.

Victoria S- Homecoming Hydrangeas

 My photo is called Homecoming Hydrangeas because these are the flowers I decorated my house with on the night of the homecoming dance. It was taken September 29th during the day on my patio. I took it with my camera, the Nikon D3300. I edited it by increasing the brightness and saturation. I also used the spot healing tool in Photoshop to touch up my image. I think it could be better if the white hydrangeas weren’t blurred. 

Caleb L- Niagara Falls

 Niagara Falls State Park, New York May 14, 2023. It was take for some memories. I didn't edit it at all.  I think it would be better if I had added some more light and shadow adjustments.

Marvin M- Beautiful Skies

I took this image in the back of a Target. I took it with my phone. I edited to show the shadows a little more detail. I feel like it could be better if I increased the backlight a bit more.

 

Montana T- Acoustic Guitar

 This picture was taken in August when we first started school in my neighborhood. It was taken with an iPhone 15 pro and edited to make the guitar pop out in the picture. This picture could be better if the cars weren’t in the background.

Anna G- Cool Moon

 This image is titled “Cool Moon”. I took this picture in my front yard in the late afternoon/early evening after school in late August. I took this picture with my Nikon D5100 camera using my extra zoom-in lens. I edited this photo by making the sky a bit lighter and more vibrant so it looked more blue than black. I made a new layer with only the moon on it so I could bring back the contras and the detail of the texture of the moon without affecting the background. I think this picture could be better if the leaves were a completely black silhouette rather than having a bit of green in them.

Nora M- Florida

 The title of my image is Florida. My photo was taken in Florida during the summer of 2022. My photo was taken with an iPhone 13 Pro. I edited my photo by increasing the exposure and shadows, decreasing the contrast and highlights, and increasing the saturation. I think my image could be better if I made the colors more vibrant.
