I took this pan downtown. Overall i think it was about 20 pictures and to edit it i burned the sky and played with highlights and shadows, overall i think it turned out pretty neat!

I took this picture of the lower part of ticket meter about three weeks ago while I was parked down near the UAB campus. I merged a picture of grass on top and played with the brightness/contrast layers and photo filter.

Brittney L- Splash


 i took this picture over the summer in north carolina. i rally like how the water splashed up as i took the picture. i edited this picture by adjusting the levels and adjusting all the colors. 

Courtney M- Porte Arrière


I took this picture in New Orleans at the St. Louis cathedral. To edit it I made it black and white and changed the levels and added a bit more saturation. There was also a sign on the wall that I had to clone stamp out.

Graham S- Tunnel


I took this picture over winter break in Jacksonville, Florida at the Gator Bowl. Our seats were on the 20 yard line, and the seats were perfect for taking good pictures. I was two rows up from the tunnel, and when Mississippi State was coming out, I had to get a picture. I didn't do anything fancy to this picture; I made it black and white and played with the levels of each of the colors.I think this picture would have been a lot better if I would have been down in the tunnel, which I don't believe would have been legally possible.

Ellie W. - Poinsettias Petals


I took this photo outside my house beside our sidewalk in the front. There were some poinsettias sitting out there so I took one of the petals off of the flower and laid it in some grass. I really like the contrast of the colors and the natural brightness of the red on the petal.  I used my macro lens to shoot this. I used a mask and desaturate the top layer and masked the color through on certain parts. 

Hayley H- Lighthouse


This picture was taken in Virginia Beach back in November. The light house was on an army base. I downloaded a marbley texture and put that on top and reduced the opacity to make the cool crackeley effect. The I brought out the blue in the sky.

This is a picture I took of a candle in front of the Christmas tree over the break. It was taken with my Canon Rebel xs. I really the the way the bokeh turned out in the background. 

Morgan Ann C- Broken Pieces


I took this picture for the reflections project. I messed around with it in photoshop and added a couple of filter layers. I really like the way it turned out, but I feel like there is something else I could do.

Savannah F- Hogwarts


I took this in Orlando, Florida during Christmas break. This is in the Harry Potter section of Universal. I used my new zoom lens. I liked this picture cause it focuses on the sign but you can still see the buildings in the background. Also Im just a big fan of Harry Potter.

I took this for High/Low Key and I darkened it more than it was. 

Ellie W. - Eva


I took this photo for the Children project. Its my cousin Eva, and I took it down in Florida this past weekend. I edited it by using the effects that I did in my vintage tutorial and made the colors a lot warmer because I didn't like the way it looked when the colors were cooler. 

Graham S- Waterfall


I took this picture at the lake in my neighborhood. I was taking pictures for the Water assignment and it caught my eye as I was walking around. To edit it, I messed with the saturation, selective color, and the levels. I took this picture about three weeks ago.

Morgan Ann C- Terminator Dog


For this picture I used an old picture of my and composited it with a picture of my broken side view mirror. I tried doing it for the entire do but I really like how it was just around the eye. I put in another layer around the eye to make it look like he was blind.

This is a picture of two of my friends dancing in Railroad Park.  I took this picture with my Rebel xs. I did a lot of editing in Photoshop.  I like how the light catches different parts of the subject.  Also, the subjects were really talented so it made taking their pictures a lot more fun.

Savannah F- Daniel


I took this picture downtown early December in this tunnel thing I found. This is Daniel Hubbard, he's the bassist for the band I was taking pictures for, Portraits, a local deathcore band. I particularly liked this one because of the lines of the walls in the background, the seriousness on his face, and the colors. I just did simple edits, brightened up and saturated his eyes a little, and made the graffiti on the walls more saturated. 

Hayley H- Clock


I took this picture back when I was shooting for the circles assignment. This clock is in my kitchen. To make it look all lacey and cool, I put a lace texture over the picture of the clock and color burned the layer. Then I burned the background to the red on the clock could stand out.

This panorama was taken at the casaba river behind Hoover High School. It's made up of about 50 pictures. Overall, I like the way it turned out, and what I like most is the way the river bends.
