Tizoc J- Liquid Grapes

I chose this photo “Liquid Grapes” because i like still life photos with a melted look. to edit this picture i lightened it up and then went crazy hand with the liquify tool.

Rachael M- Abandoned Chuch

I took this picture downtown for the architecture project. I like this picture because it looks rundown, which it is, and the bushes are overgrown and dead which works well with the rundown building.

Anyul M- Walking on The Music

i took this picture a while ago with my nikon D3200 then cropped the picture from the bottom because it had some empty space. I used photoshop to edit it . I didn’t really do much to it  but takeaway some of the shadows because it was going to become black and white.

Brianna S- PhotoBlog #8

The title of this image is “PhotoBlog #8”. I used this for the action assignment. I took this on my street a few weekends ago. I took this with my Nikon D3100. I edited it by making the background a little busier. It could be better if the background was more interesting.

Matthew M- The Bay

The title of this image is “The Bay”. I took this picture over spring break. I was standing on top of this look out point looking over the bay. I took this picture with my iPhone. I decided not to edit it because i liked the colors in the original photo.

Alex H - Cowboy

The title of this image is “Cowboy.” It was taken over Spring Break in Dallas, Texas. I edited this picture to be black and white and I also made the background brighter. I like the point of view used for this picture. I think it looks better in black and white than it did in color. It could be better if it hadn’t been taken with my phone.

Nick G - Bubbles

I titled this “Bubbles” it was taken over spring break in the Bahamas. I went snorkeling at a reef, I took this with a GoPro Hero3. I thought it was cool and abstract with all of the bubbles and reflections. I edited this by changing the Hue/Saturation and vibrance and leaned up the photo a bit.

Jeremy L- Five-0

I titled this picture “Five-0”. It was taken several weeks ago at Battle Ground Skate Park with a Canon T5i and Opteka fisheye lens. I edited it by taking away the majority of the color and changing the remaining color.  

Ben D- Wreath

The title of this image is “Wreath.” I took this photo on Christmas Day using a Canon T5i with a 50mm f/1.8 and an external flash. I placed the flash behind the wreath in order to create a high contrast area on the wreath.

Leah B- Kicking Color

This picture is called “Kicking Color”. The colorful swirls are a long exposure picture of my little cousins toy. The other picture is just simply my sister doing a back tuck on the beach. To edit this, I made it into a composite, then added contrast and saturation. One thing I would like to be different is for her body to be all black, instead of having a little color too it. Overall, I am very very happy with how this picture turned out.

Meagan M- Drop

The title of this picture is Drop. I took this picture from the sink in my bathroom because it never stops dripping. I really like the way this picture turned out. I didn’t do much editing to this picture except make it black and white. It probably could be better if it was a little less blurry at the bottom.

Madeline V.- Track & Shops Sketch

   My picture is titled, Track & Shops Sketch, and I took it during spring break in Texas at this old west thing they have there(it was really cool, I definitely recommend it).  I chose this picture for the photoblog because I really like how I was able to get the photo to look like a sketch that someone wasn’t quite finished with yet.  I edited it by doing one of the filters on it and then just messing around with the color and brightness/contrast after I put the filter on the photo.  I’m really happy with the way it turned out, but I wish that I could’ve put some color on more of the beams.

Ashley B- Spring Break Composite

There are 3 total images in this one photo. The first one is the stone tunnel with water running underneath, which can be clearly seen in the bottom left hand corner. This one specific image is also where all the trees and the brick wall come from. The second photo is a picture of my dog named Gunner. The third one is a picture of the sky at sunset, with a few dark trees on the outer edge of the image. Those are what makes something like an “L” shape in the left, bottom, corner. All 3 of these pictures were taken in Ross Bridge and i combined them together in photoshop. If i could figure out how to make my dog stand out a little more, i think that would greatly improve it, but overall it’s a decent photo.

Lupita G - Architecture 2

I took this downtown. I added a lot of layers so the sky wouldn’t look white and to add an effect to the picture. I also changed the contrast.

Carmen V-Birds

I took this picture at Gulf Shores in the morning during spring break. I took it with my Canon EOS T5 Rebel. I edited it by copying the bird and then I pasted 2 birds. I added the halftone pattern filter.
It could have been better to me if the birds were flying up. The sun was rising so it made the scene way better.

Bella M- PhotoBlog 8

This photo was taken on spring break around town with a Cannon t3i. This picture already had the faded feel to it and also the sun rays, so i was careful when editing it so it didn’t loose its lightness. I did however increase the saturation as well as vibrance. This picture could be better if there wasn’t so much sky ion the top left and i took it from another angle so there were trees in the back.

Hannah W- Mountain View

The title of this image is “Mountain View”. It was taken in my neighborhood a couple weeks ago. It was taken with my Nikon D3100. I edited it by increasing the saturation and messing with the levels. It could be better if I had taken the photo from a different angle.

Zayn D- The KIng

I took this picture at 2nd and Charles with my sony cyber shot. I edited this picture by adjusting the brightness and contrast, adding the yellow photo filter and cleaning up some blemishes across different parts of the picture. This picture would be better if the lighting was better.

Rachel P- Kitty

This picture was taken at work of my bosses cat for our close-up assignment. The only editing I did to this picture was add a B&W filter. I don’t think I could of done anything different for this picture. I am really happy with it.

Katie J- Balling

  My photo, “Balling” was taken this past weekend at South Shades Crest Elementary School. It was taken with my Nikon 3200. I edited the photo by cropping it to be centered and brightening the image, as well as, saturating the basketball. It could be better if there was less shadow on the image.

ZohraP- Love Birds

This picture was taken by me when I went to the zoo. It was taken by my sony cyber shot camera. I edited this by brightening it up, putting it a lot of vibrance, I played a lot with the colors as well. I absolutely love how it turned out. I also love how parrots are in perfect position.

Kyla H. Pinot Grigio

This was taken in the studio when we were doing the still life assignment. I use his camera which I do not remember what it was called. But I named this Pinot Grigio because of the wine bottle in the vase. And I put a black and white filter on it!

Nancy N.- Photoblog #7

I took this photo a while ago in my room. The subject is a decoration that is hanging from my ceiling. I like the darkness of the photo I think it gives charter to the shot. If I was going to change anything, I would probably take a straighter photo.

Abbey S- All Star

I took this picture with my canon for the still life assignment. I edited this picture by painting with the brush to make the whole background black. I also edited the curves on this picture to give it the dimming look. If I could change something I would make the painting lines of black more straight because you can still see some floor by the edge of the shoes.

Grace C- Product of Society

I call this picture “Product of Society” . I took it with my Canon Rebel XSi. I went shooting with my friend Kelly over spring break. To edit this picture, I added noise, reduced the saturation, and put a barcode over her hands/face.

Elizabeth R.- The Crow Queen

The title of this image is The Crow Queen because of the crows that decided to sit upon the statue of Queen Elizabeth outside of Kensington Palace. I took this picture over Christmas break while I was in London. I took this picture with my Cannon Rebel. I edited it by lightening it up as well as boosting the contrast and increasing the saturation. It could be better if I maybe cropped in a bit closer to the statue.

Maria V - Collision of Two Hearts

This image is titled “Collision of Two Hearts”. I used this image as a closeup. Filtered it black and white because it was a better fit to the subject due to the color of object and background. It was brightened a tide bit in photoshop and dimmed the contrast of it. It’s not as sharpened because of the glassy and clear look it has. I think it’s pretty simple.

Samantha A - photoblog 7

I took this photo for the still life assignment and edited it using photoshop. I added a swirl effect to manipulate it and make a little more artsy. I took this picture with my Nikon D5200.

Justin C- Camera

The title of this image is “Camera” It was taken of my video camera that sits on my shelf. It was taken with my EOS Rebel for the close up assignment. 

Sydnie M- Chloe

I took this photo around two weeks ago in Auburn Al. when visiting family. The name of my photo is “Chloe”. I took this picture with my phone, because its difficult to get a in focus snap of her because she moves around a lot. I edited this photo by making the background black and white with some grey values and then adding some color around her face. I think this picture could have been better if I would have not gotten so close to the top of her head with the edge of the picture. All in all I’m really happy with this photo!

Justin H- g l i t c h

As you can tell, this photo is called glitch. I used multiple techniques in order to get that old vhs or cctv look, as well as making the colors distorted. There really isn’t anything I would change about the photo.

Joicelyn R- False Beauty

The title of this image is “False Beauty”. I chose this photo as my favorite because it was the best out of all the photos I took for this assignment. To edit this photo, I changed the brightness/contrast levels. I then duplicated the background layer and I painted with black to pull some of the original picture lighting back. I later added another layer and painted a small section with white just to put a little more darkness in some areas. I honestly wouldn’t change anything about this photo because I am so in love with how it currently looks.

Colton S- Gear Shift

This image  is called Gear Shift because it is the shifter in my car.  It was taken with my Canon EOS Mk. IV. I modified the image by brightening up the image, as well as boosted the sharpness os the numbers could be visible.I wish that I could have boosted the colors for the clutch.
