MaKena C - Witch



I took this photo over the summer at my grandmother’s house. I didn’t do much to it I just changed the contrast and color a little. I can’t tell if I want it to be sharper or not. I kinda like the soft look. 

 

Madison R - "The Veiled Nun"


 This is a photo I took over the summer in the Gallery of Art in Washington, DC. This photo was taken with my Nikon D3400 camera. I edited it by adding a black-and-white filter, bringing down the highlights, and adding a vignette. I think the photo could have been a little clearer or sharper but other than that I really liked this shot! 

Carol A- Alone with a Book


 No statement provided

Courtni D- Light



This was taken September 28th of this year here at school. It was taken with Mr. Rigby’s Canon EOS Rebel T3. I barely did anything to this photo but I edited the lighting adjustments in the Photos app. I think if I tried to go to photoshop and played around a bit it could be a little better. I just have a habit of not going to photoshop unless I have to.

Bess H - The Struggle


 This image is titled “The Struggle”. The picture tackles the idea of the struggles that people with addiction have. This photo was taken about 3 weeks ago in the studio. I cropped some of this image and turned it black and white. I also did some things with the contrast and added a black gradient to the image. I also used a Nik collection filter to get some more detail. I wish that I would have tried to do this image in color. 


A'Kelsa N- Coral


 I took this picture of Coral in the room. It was taken for the moods assignment. No editing was done.

Ani W- Pink Neon Lights


 I’ve titled this image Pink Neon Lights and took this image a few weeks ago near Shades Valley. The sun was setting so the lighting was at the perfect angle to capture the shadows of the car. I took this image with my Canon EOS Rebel T-7 camera. I edited this image on photoshop by lowering the brightness, increasing the saturation, adding headlights to the car, changing the tone and hue of the lights, and adding a vintage filter from the Nik collection. I also shifted the image a little bit to the left giving it the sense that the car is moving. If I were to change something about the image, I would probably change the brightness of the image, getting rid of the headlights that I added to the car.


Nora G- Snow Storm


 This is a photo from my old house a few years ago when we had a snow storm. I like it because I like the way you can see the icicles on the water fountain for the pool. I am not sure how I edited it but I think I used some type of filter and changed the lighting.

Mia N- Lights


This picture was taken in the studio on Sep 29. It was taken with one of Mr. Rigsby’s cameras. This picture is unedited.

Betsey S - Doritos


 The title of this image if Doritos because she had eaten them and the dust is on her fingers. It was taken in the photography lab for the hands and feet project. It was taken with on of mr rigsbys camera. I used the dodge burn tool to darken and brighten her fingers. I think the fingers could fill the frame more.


Shae M- Stages of Anxiety


 The title of my image is “Stages of Anxiety”. With this image, I wanted to show the different moods and emotions people experience with anxiety. I took this photo about two weeks ago in the studio. I used my Nikon D3500 to take this photo. I edited it by merging 3 different images together and lowering the opacity on each of them so you can see all three of them at the same time. I also raised the contrast and the brightness so they were not so dark. Finally, I used a Nik collection filter to add more color to the photos. It could be better if the images were blended in a more clean way. 


Linley- Rebirth


This photograph is titled Rebirth. I took this picture at my house three and a half weeks ago, roughly. By the way, this picture symbolizes how birth control often makes women feel like they are “rebrithed” and have a new life. I took this picture with my Nikon camera. I edited this by making the Smartie candy more center on the tongue. I brightened up the skin and added butterflies to the overall picture due to the fact that butterflies symbolize rebirth and innocence. I added some color and vibrance to each butterfly in order to make them stand out more. I also added the word “rebirth” to the Smartie in order toe emphasize that birth control represents rebirth to a majority of people that take it. This picture could be better if the text on the tongue was more visible, and if the skin was not as grainy as it appears.

Allie S- Never Be Enough


 The title of my image is Never Be Enough. It was taken in the studio at Hoover High School on Sep 19, 2022. It was taken with a Canon Rebel T7. I edited the image by playing with the saturation and lighting. I also a nik collection filter and added text which I masked. I kind of wouldn’t mind changing the text I don’t totally love it. 


Aiden S - Abandoned


 I called this abandoned because it was taken in the abandoned hospital downtown called carraway. I used my Canon T7 Rebel to shoot the photo and turned the brightness up just a bit. It was taken during the summer. I used a bit of Nik Collection and adjusted the brightness and shadows. I think I could have tried making some of the graffiti stand out or just make the photo more defined.


Ayla S - Laughter


 The title of this image is “Laughter.” It was taken at the softball park behind my house in September. I took it with my Canon Rebel T6. To edit this photo I added saturation and grain. It could have been better if it was in a different location.


Aidan P- Porch Light


 This image was taken for the hands and feet assignment on my back porch with one of the lights hanging around it so I just named it porch light. I took this with my iphone at night and used my hand to grab it. I took the pictures a few times before I got a steady image that was clear and level. When I edited it I made the bulb a little darker for less of a glare and more detail with it and the hand. After that I went into the color effects filter and used the color contrast filter with some little adjustments. I can’t think of anything specific I’d want to change but I would like to try it in black and white.

Drew B- Mary


 I'm love this photo I took it with my Nikon D5600 and I played around with the lighting and made parts darker and brighter.


Brandon B- The Night Blue


  I titled this image, “The Night Blue”, as the cops are sometimes referred to as the blue.  Plus the blue lights at night give it this obvious name.  I took this picture coming out of Zaxby’s in my mom’s car, and on the side of the road were many cop cars around a wreck with their lights on.  Thought it might make a cool lights image, and it ended up looking pretty cool I think.  A little abstract but still good.  It was taken Sep 27, 2022 with my iPhone 13 Pro. I edited this with some simple lighting and contrast.  Finally added a bit of fog for dramatic effect.  This could be better had I been able to get out of the car and stand still to take the shot.

Courtni D- Purple Light Storm


This is a photo of a projector light. I took this image on September 5, 2022 at my room. I was taken with my Canon EOS 2000D. I edited this photo in the photos app adjusting the lighting and color options. I think this photo could be better if I had photographed it with something other than the light. 
 

CAROLINE M- Point


 This photo is called point, it was taken at moss rock in the preserve on August 28. It was taken with my Nikon D3300. I edited it by lowering the exposure and the brightness and I heightened the saturation but not by much. I love the perspective of this picture but i do wish she was sticking out a little bit more, she was blending into the background.


Madison R - Happy Monkey


 This photo was taken in the Washington, DC National Zoo over the summer. This was taken with my Nikon D3400 Camera. I edited it by bringing up the saturation and the brilliance and bringing down the highlights and brightness. I also sharpened the image. I think this photo could be better if the branches in the background weren't so large and distracting. 


Martha Claire D- Pretty Lady



 The title of this image is “Pretty Lady”, because I couldn’t come up with a title and it’s a picture of a pretty lady. This was taken two weeks ago at my house for the story illustration assignment. It was taken with my Nikon D5100. I edited it by altering the lighting so that the background would be darker and the subject would stand out. I also used the burn tool to make the background even darker. I then used the Analog filters in the NIK collection to get the vintage, soft look. I wish that I had changed the outfit she was wearing so the lace overlay looked cleaner but other than that I feel it’s pretty good.


Drew B- Spiraling Down the Rabbits Hole


I took this photo for the movie poster assignment and i really like it, this photo is of my best friend Kate. I took this photo with my Nikon D5600 and edited the background to be blurry so she would stand out I really enjoyed taking these photos.

Ani W- Colossus The Computer



 I titled this photo Colossus The Computer for obvious reasons. I took this photo on October 8, 2020 around 9pm at my grandparents house with my iphone 12 mini. I wish I could have taken the image with my Canon camera but I hadn’t gotten it yet. I do like the angle at which I took the picture, although it could have been cropped better. I edited this photo by adding a grainy color filter and fixed the lighting a little bit. I don’t know exactly why I took this photo, other than that I thought it was funny that my grandpa had this lying around the house.


Shae M- Fern


 The title of this image is “Fern”. It was taken at my house in my front yard back in October last year. I took it with my Nikon D3500. I edited it by changing the color, bringing up the contrast, and adjusting the brightness to fit the vibe. I also used the Nik Collection to sharpen the photo a bit. This image could be better if it was cropped differently, or if it was more in focus overall. 


MaKena C - Skye


 The name of this photo is Skye. I took it at the park a week ago while I was taking pictures for my story illustration. I took it with my Nikon D3500. I didn’t do much to it, I just adjusted the shadows and highlights. 


Carol A- Wonder


 The title of this image is Wonder, this was taken Aug 24 2022 in Bluff Park and it was taken with my Canon Eos Rebel camera, to edit it I turned down the contrast and turned the saturation up, I think it could have been better if I cropped it more. 


Brandon B- Coke in the Tropics


   This photo is called “Coke in the Tropics”, it was taken on May 27, 2022 on the coast of Destin, Florida.  I caught my coke sweating on the edge of our table and snapped a pic of it with my iPhone 13 Pro.  I edited this with a few lighting adjustments, as well as some sharpness enhancements.  It could be better if the lighting was better when I took the image.


Betsey S - Nantasket


 I titled this image Nantucket because it was taken there this summer. It was taken with my Canon Rebel T6. I didn't edit it but I feel like I could turn the saturation up along with lowering the shadows.
