Raven L- Untitled

This photo doesn't have a title. It was taken last January with my Canon EOS Rebel t2i. I increased the contrast and blue tones in the sky. I wish more of it was in focus and that the horizon couldnt be seen.

Caeden H- Blue Skies

 The title of this image is “Blue Skies”. I took this image November 26th, 2021 while we were driving over the bridge going to the beach. I took this photo with my Iphone 11 pro. To edit this picture I decreased the exposure slightly, increased the contrast and hue, and cropped it so the water would fill more of the picture. I think this image could be better if the railing was not there pulling focus from the water and sun. 

Tyrick H - Pear Tree

 The name of this picture is the pear tree. This tree is located in the front lawn of my house. I noticed this tree a couple of months after I moved into my house. I took this picture for my night and day assignment around late September. I took this picture with My iphone which is an iPhone 11 pro. I edited this image by taking out the solar light that actually shines on the tree and I also added some softness around the edges and dodge tool to make the subject pop out more. I think the picture could have been better by having more of a close up shot of the tree.

Marshall H - Dirt

  The name of this image is “Dirt” I really have no reason for that to be the name, it just seemed fitting. This was taken on November 28, 2021-- I was driving around Montevallo and the sunset was just breathtaking. “Dirt” was taken with my iPhone 13, I didn’t do much to edit it. I honestly wish the dirt mounds couldn’t be seen, but I think they kinda add a certain charm. 

Ayla S- New Years Eve

 This image is titled “New Year’s Eve.” I took this photograph at my friend’s house on New Year’s Eve. This photo was taken with my EOS Canon Rebel T6. I cropped the door frame off the sides of the photos so that the photo was more clean and focused on Abby’s face. I think if this photo was a little less pixelated it could be a little better than it is.

Caroline M- Light in the Dark

 

This picture is called “Light in the Dark”. It was taken December 26,2021 on our way to Tennessee. I took it with my IPhone 8 plus in the back of my car. I decided that with the bright orange color to darken the picture and brighten the car lights a little. I wish I could have made the glare of the car lights go down but I couldn’t find a very good way to do it. I also tried to brighten the tail lights of the cars going the other way but it didn’t turn out like I wanted.

Alpha S- Big Dog

The name of this photo is big dog. This photo is of me in the car about to go to a basketball game.

Santo F- Driving the Free Way

 

I took this picture on I-65 south. I took it  2 months ago  I took it with my phone  I edited it a little bit with my phone. If I had changed the color I think the picture would have looked better.

Betsey S- Golf Course

This image is titled Golf Course because it is quite literally a picture of a golf course. It was taken at a course near my beach house like me and my uncle played over christmas break. This photo was taken with my phone because while playing golf I couldn't carry a camera around with me. To edit this picture I cropped it in a lot to try and make it fit into the rule of thirds category. I also bright out the saturation, highlights, shadows, and exposure. I feel like if I would have had a better camera on hand the quality would have turned out better.

Adam T- Bham

 The title of the image is called “Bham. It was taken on top of the Vulcan Statue during Christmas near downtown Birmingham. It was taken with my IPhone because I’m not taking a $500 camera all the way up there for some pictures. I just dropped some of the sky out and applied a black and white filter to the photo. Overall, I feel like if it was more focused and clear, the picture would be ten times better.

Maddie T- Pontiac

 This photo is titled “Pontiac”. It was taken at the “Miles through time” museum and antique mall in Clarkesville, north Georgia. It is of a vintage pontiac sign, on the wall in a more muted way you can see more vintage signs. I fell in love with the environment and scenery of North Georgia and though I am not a fan of cars and all of that stuff I really do enjoy the way this picture and the bright lights shine through the surrounding areas. It was taken on my canon T-100 and edited in Adobe Lightroom on my phone. I turned the contrast up and edited selected colors such as blue and red to bring them out. 

Gabby W- Cosmic Corner

 I took this photo the day before my birthday when I was in Nashville celebrating with my friends. We were walking down the street after we had eaten dinner and I thought it would look cool, so I took a photo. When I was editing I toned down the exposure, brightness, and saturation. It gives the photo this gloomy look that I find really cool. I do wish that I could’ve gotten a more clear shot of it, since I took the picture pretty quickly it is a bit blurry. I also may take a picture closer up.

Isaiah M- Beach Day

 The image name is Beach Day. The image was taken at Miramar beach and it was taken Sep 3, 2021, it was taken with my phone I turned the brightness up it could also be less burled 

Aidan P- Flower Print

 I named this picture “Flower Print” mostly because Mr Rigsby printed it out and so I just named it that. This image was taken at my Aunt and Uncle’s house of a real flower and as you can see the pine straw and other things from the fall decorations helped. I made it black and white because there already wasn’t a lot of color and making it black and white brought out a lot of detail. I did the black and white filter and picture taking with my phone and a little more editing on the computer but not much. I really like it and think it’s pretty well done.

Trevor P- State Capital

 This image was taken January 1st 2022 in Montgomery at our state capital. This image shows the front door entering the capitol building. I took this with my Iphone 13 pro with the 0.5x lens. After taking the shot I edited it by bringing out the color in the wood to make it brighter and richer. On top of that I cropped a bit of the extra space that way the main focus in the shot is the door and I used the dodge and sponge tool to make the stain glass pop. Finally I changed the perspective of the image and made it appear more level with the actual height of the door. I really liked how this image came out overall. 

Alexia T - You've got the Window

 This photo was taken January 3, 2021 on my iPhone 7and it has never been edited. The title derived from a conversation with my coworker Anna.  My main manager that day listed the position of my coworkers (excluding Anna) but only pointed towards the back in reference to my work station for the day. At first this confused me but I became relieved when I realized no one was in the window which meant I'd be working alone or running the register. These were my thoughts until Anna popped out of the break room saying, “Aht,aht. You’ve got the window baby.” The picture could be better if the clock-in area was not in the background. 

Amelia R- Little Doggy

The name of this picture is “Little Doggy” featuring my dog, Sophie. I saw her laid out on the driveway and laid down next to her and I thought it would make for a good picture. I took this photo in my backyard with my Nikon D5000 camera. For editing I cropped some of the bottom concrete out, and I tried to edit the lighting but I realized I preferred the original. I think it could’ve been better if I had laid the camera parallel to the driveway.  

Joseph R- Minions

 This photo is called Minions. It was taken on New Year’s Eve in Ebenezer Swamp in Calera. I increased the brightness on the foreground and decreased it in the background. I also adjusted the hue and saturation of the background to make it redder and more vivid. The foreground is a little too dark and the entire photo is somewhat harsh on the eyes, but overall I like it. My friend, the subject, is a little bit too obsessed with Minions. She needs help

Nora G- Perspective

  The name of this image is just Perspective. It was taken at a park After school one day. It was taken with my camera and it was edited by changing the lighting and the saturation. I really like this image because I like the way the trees look so much bigger than the person on the ground. It could be better in many ways. If there was something that was more of the main focus it could make it better. I just like this one because I think it is cool to look at the difference in size. 

Connor G- Rainbow

 This picture is called Rainbow, for obvious reasons. As far as editing it, I really didn’t. I think it is a simple photo that I took three years ago and it doesn’t require anything special. It could have been way better. I could have taken time to really center the rainbow, taken different shots from different angles, things like that. But, I didn’t.

Ani W- Playdate Doggos

 I took this picture on December 22, 2021 at 4:08 pm. I took it outside in my backyard with my iPhone 12 mini. It is a picture of my dog Bella (right), and my next door neighbor's dog, Lola (left). I titled the image Playdate Doggos because they are two cute little dogs having fun together. I edited this picture by lowering the saturation, sharpening the image, and put a vintage filter on it. I could have gotten a better angle of the two, but they were running so fast and having fun, I didn’t want to ruin the moment.

Sydney R - Bella

 The name of this picture is “Bella”. It was taken about 2 years ago for photography class. The camera that I used was my Nikon D3500. To edit, I wanted to make the photo dramatic so I increased the shadows, contrast, and saturation. I like the photo the way that it is!

Liv R - Clover

This photo is named after my cat, Clover. I took this on my front porch mid August with my Nikon D3300. I edited this photo by increasing the saturation and making the reds pop. I think this photo could have been better if I had centered the chair better in the frame and against the wall. I also wish I could’ve gotten more of her tail into the photo, but I’m afraid if I touched my model she might have left, haha!

Britney P - Morning Crow

 This photo is called “Morning Crow.” I took this photo on October 19 of this year on my way to the school bus. I was lucky to be able to take this picture because it flew away right afterward. I wish this photo was sharper and more vibrant, but I am just happy to be able to capture the crow at the moment. 

A'Kelsa N- Hoover Belles

.

I took this around December 3rd in the Bluff Park neighborhood with aCanon t7. I added blur and made it lighter.It could be better is it was not out of focus sorta.

Mia N- Snow

I took this a few days ago on a road close to my house. This picture was taken with my phone and I edited it by adding contrast to the picture. I think this picture would be better if I had taken it with my camera so he quality of the picture was better.

Tyler G- Mushroom

 This image is called Mushroom. It was taken about a year ago in my friends backyard. I took this photo with my iPhone and I edited it with photoshop. I think this photo could’ve been better if I got multiple shots with different angles and perspectives.

Jonathan F - Sundown

 The title of this image is called sundown. It was taken on December 27, 2021 in some soccer fields in Huetamo, Mexico. The picture was taken with my Iphone. I haven't edited this picture yet so this is how it looks right now. I think this picture could have been taken better by taking it closer and trying to get more of the sun going down. I could have also cropped it so there was just the sunset and not the other things around it.

Martha Claire D- Up On The Bluff

 The title of this image is “Up On The Bluff”. It was taken on Shades Crest in the car during mid-November. It was taken with my IPhone 11, because it’s what I had. I edited this photo by increasing the saturation, exposure, and color contrast. Then I used a Color Efex Pro filter in order to create the cozy, vintage feel of the photograph. I wish that the photo was a bit sharper and I wish the sky was more blended. It’ll probably end up as my phone wallpaper at some point. 

Brooke J - Night Reading

The title of this image is Night Reading. I took this picture in my parent’s room around nighttime. I took this with my  Canon EOS digital Rebel XS. I made this image have a more pink tone and I darkened it as well. I think I could have arranged the items differently or had a different focus point. 

Sam M - Pizza Hut

 This is the first picture I took with my new phone. I took this in a moving car at night and was amazed by the quality of it. I know this picture isn’t the best but I still like it. This Pizza Hut is right by my house and it just recently turned its lights back on after a year of being closed.

Yori D- The Road

 The name of my photo is called The Road. I took this photo while I was on a college tour at Alabama A&M and it was taken with my iPhone. I edited my photo by darkening it then bringing down the contrast just a little bit, nothing too extra. I feel like my photo could be better if it was a little bit more color and different types of filters.

Jackson C- Offroad

 

The title of this image is “Offroad”. This was taken in Lake Cyrus behind a new neighborhood on a trail. This photo was taken with my iPhone. I edited this photo by increasing the saturation and lowering the brightness and increasing the contrast to make the photo a nice shade to show off the colors of both Jeeps. This photo could be better if I had taken it with a DSLR camera to increase quality.

Hailey D - Snow Day

This picture was taken in a neighborhood near Simmons middle school on January 3, 2022 at 9:42 AM. This was taken on my iphone and the editing I did was just cropping some of the car out of the photo. This photo could be taken better with less of the car in the picture.

Courtni D- Sunset

 The name of this photo is Sunset because it is a photo of the sunset. I took this photo at my apartment on December 24, 2021. It was taken with my iPhone 12. I did not edit the photo. I was gonna crop it but decided not to.

Teniyah M- Blue Day

This picture was taken at six flags in Atlanta Georgia. I used my iPhone to take the picture but all I did was play with the contrast and used little highlight and used the crop tool.

Jack L- Buc-ee's

 The title of this is Buc-ee’s. This picture was taken at Buc-ee’s, the time it was taken was around 6:30 in October. The photo was taken with an iPhone 11. I didn't edit it. It could be better by moving away from the cars and the building so it would be a clearer sunset.

Elizabeth C- Sunset

The title of my image is Sunset. I took this photo on October 11th in 2021. I took this photo in a neighborhood in trace crossings where there was a little trail. I did not have my camera with me so I just took this photo on my phone. I edited this photo by increasing contrast, shadows, and saturation and brought the high lights down a little bit. It would have been better if it had been taken on my actual camera because when I edited and cropped it it became a little bit pixelated. 

Alex B- My Truck

 The title of the this image is My Truck. The image was taken at my dad’s house in the driveway at around 4:30 in the afternoon. It was taken on the date September 13th, 2021. The image was taken with my Iphone 11 pro. This image was edited by increase in saturation around the image and decrease in color of the driveway to highlight the truck more. The angle of which I took the photo could have been better and The image quality could have been improved with a better device to take the picture with.

Alex B- Teddy Bear Boy

 The title of this image is “Teddy Bear Boy” because he looks big and aggressive but he is really a big snuggly teddy bear. I love him a lot . This image was taken on September 26, 2021 and was taken in my backyard. This was taken on my Canon EOS REBEL T3. I used photoshop and made the saturation darker in spots, i healed white dust flakes on his muzzle and added a blur in the background. The photo could look better if he had been a little more sill but he is an animal so it's expected that he would move. 

MATTHEW B- Life

This was taken at home for the still life project

Tyrelle H- Breathing Tree

The name of this image is called Breathing Tree. I took this photo during my last shift at my job at Panera Bread. It was taken outside during a warm rain shower that made the tree pop out more.  I took this picture on the 7th of September 2021. It felt just like yesterday when I took this, it’s crazy how fast time goes by. I took this photo with my Iphone 12 pro Max because I didn't own a premium camera yet and that was the closest thing to a premium camera  that I owned at the time. I edited this using the Apple photos’ app.  If I can remember it right  while enhancing/editing the photo I raised the brilliance, shadows, brightness, contrast, and black point. I lowered the exposure and highlights. If I could make his better I would probably have gotten rid of the the color and enhance the rain effect so you could see the rain more

Floyd G- Glow in the Dark

 Glow In the Dark. This photo was taken in my room and it was taken 2 months ago. Iphone 12 pro. I up the saturation and sharpened the image. If it was taken at a better angle

Brandon B- Disturbance in the Force

 This is “Disturbance in the Force” taken on December 19th, 2021, inspired by Star Wars.  It is a photo I took on my spare time with my iPhone 13 Pro, experimenting with lightsaber effects in PhotoShop.  As I wanted to use my new Apple Magic Mouse 2 I had gotten for Christmas. I took a few, but I felt this was the best.  To do the lightsaber effect, I painted over the blade with white and then liquified it to get the Kylo Ren unstable effect.  Then I used the red color replacement tool wich highlighted the edge of the white in red, creating the lightsaber blade.  To get a fog effect I used the cloud filter, and made it transparent.  Then used red color replacement to have a red glow on the fog. And as a last touch I added the Star Wars logo, and embossed it to have a metallic look.  This photo could be better if it was a bit sharper.

Emily B - Sunset on the Lake

 I named this photo sunset on the lake. I took this picture over Christmas break at Logan Martin with my phone because I didn’t have access to a DSLR camera. I edited the photo by adjusting the contrast, brightness, and tone. I also touched up some spots where there was wood or something else in the water. I think I could have made the colors look better or more prominent, but I think it’s a pretty picture. 

Will B - Mugshot 22

 The title of this image is Mugshot 22. It is from the mugshot exam assignment and the roman numerals on the cap are the number 22. The variety of pictures used in the image were all taken by Mr. Rigsby a few weeks before the end of the first semester. I edited the image to combine a total of 6 different people into one person. I used the mask tool to blend together each of the images, and spend some time matching the colors as well. I feel like I could have done a better job of blending the hair a bit more, although it does still look good.Overall, I really enjoyed editing this, and I am quite proud of how it turned out!

Hellen A- El Cantaro

 I name this picture El Cantaro. I took this picture for our still life assignment. This was my narrative picture. I took this in my backyard. I put a white sheet over my fence and I added a yellow blanket. I edit the wrinkles out of the sheet and I also brighten the yams. I wished I would’ve edited the wrinkles more.  

Marshall F - Snowy Truck

This Image is titled Snowy Truck. This was taken on the snow day we had during Christmas Break at my house. It is a picture of my 1977 Ford pickup truck in the snow. I took this picture with my Iphone XR. I took this picture in the same spot I took a picture of my truck during the summer, so now I have a picture of the truck in both summer and winter environments. I did not edit this picture much, because it was just a quick picture I took as it started snowing. I think it would be better if It would have been snowing during the picture. 

Paris C- Fallen

 The title of my image is Fallen because of the fall colors and because of the cold which makes the leaves fall. I took this picture at Hoover High School on 11/17/21. This picture was taken from my phone. I edited by making it dark enough to show the branches, the light from the sun, and the details in the leaves. I really like this image. It kind of calms me for some reason.

Jackson B- Camaro

 The name of the Photo is Camaro. It was taken in the late afternoon a few days ago. It was taken with a Canon eos 6d, I cropped it and darkened the image a bit. If iI had tried to get more in focus it would have been better. I really like this photo because I did it as a favor for a friend.
