Aiden S - Ponyboy

 I named this photo “Ponyboy.” I tried giving that tone of the book “The Outsiders.” I lowered the brightness and made the contrast a bit higher. This photo was taken at Aldridge Gardens. I think it would have been better if I made it look more old. It was taken with my Canon Rebel T7.

Paris C- Blues Clues

 I named this image Blue's Clues because of how blue the sky looks. It was taken outside of a restaurant on December 24, 2022. It was taken with my mothers phone because her camera is way better than mine. I maybe could have taken something more advanced and edited it a little differently but I like it just the way it is.

Carol A- Wandering Around

 The title of my image is Wandering Around, I took this picture on Dec 2, 2022, at Troy University with my iPhone 11, to edit it I just cropped it a little bit from the top and the bottom as well as turned the exposure down and bring the saturation up, think the picture could have been better if I had taken the picture from closer up and that way it wouldn't have also been so blurry.

Ani W- Kidnapped

 I’ve titled this image Kidnapped solely based on the fact that the book shown in the picture is titled that; also because the statue in the photo looks like a person being kidnapped. I took this picture on December 13, 2022 with my Canon EOS Rebel T-7 camera at my house. I edited it by adding a warm type of filter over it and adjusting the brightness and contrast levels. I wish the photo could have been clearer, but it was a bit dark in the room and I didn’t have my tripod with me at the moment.

Allie S- Youth

 The title of my image is youth. It was taken in the street by my house on December 5, 2022. I took the photo with a Canon Rebel XS. I edited it by bringing up the saturation and contrast. I also brought down the highlights. I feel like I could have gotten a better quality photo with better lighting. 

Bess H- Smoke

 This image is titled “smoke” and it was taken about 3 months ago. I took this photo at my house and it is of my brother holding a cigarette. I used my Canon 4000d. I turned the image black and white and used a nik collection filter. I also played around with the highlights to add more of a smoke effect. I added a gradient to make the background surrounding the cigarette dark. I wish that I would have gotten a better angle of the image.

Courtni D- Ornament

 I took this photo on December 11 at my sister’s house with my iPhone 14. At first I edited this photo in the photos app just adjusting the lighting options and then I went on to photoshop where I used the stamp tool to cover some things up and give the ornament a better look. I also ended up messing with some lighting options in photoshop to make the photo look richer than it was before.

Maddie T- “Ela Melo”

 This photo is of Lead Singer “Ela Melo” of Rainbow Kitten Surprise. I took it on Dec. 30th 2022 at one of their shows at the Eastern in Atlanta Georgia. It was edited in Lightroom and is one of my favorite photos that I have ever taken. 

Mia N - Water

 This picture was taken in the Georgia Aquarium on January 1, 2023. I took the picture with my iphone 13. I havent edited this picture just yet so as of right now it is unedited. I think that if I were to edit it, it could look a lot better.

MaKena C- Egg

 I took this photo at my house near a window. I wanted to use the natural from the window near the left side of the egg. I think it turned out pretty okay. I don’t really remember what I did to it. I know that I turned up the contrast and sharpened the band-aid. I think I should have gotten closer to the egg instead of relying on zooming in.

Shae M- Unhealthy Coping

 The title of my image is “Unhealthy Coping”. I took this photo at the end of November in my room. It was taken with my Nikon D3500. I edited it by raising the contrast, giving it a blue tone, and I adjusted the brightness to be slightly brighter but also fit the sad theme. I really wanted to portray how some people feel and cope with anxiety for my sustained investigation. It could be better if it was more in focus and maybe if the overall composition of the photo was better. I really liked this image, but I might go back and try to rework it to see if I can give it a different vibe. 

Brandon B- Move On

  After thinking about the name for this photo I decided to move on from it, therefore it's named “Move On”.  This was taken as apart of the Light Painting assignment on November 29th.  I edited this using multiple light painting images and combining them.  Then with time I was able to smoothen it and add the blue color with the hue mechanic.   Finally to add the splatter/star pattern I used the splatter brush at minimal size.  I believe this could have been a more complete product had I spent more time on it.

Betsey S - Cave

I tilted this image cave because It is a photo of inside a cave. It was taken last spring break in utah. It was taken with a canon rebel t6. I turned the contrast up and turned the highlights down to bring out some depth. It is too bright still I think but besides that I like it. 

Martha Claire D- Miss Mini

 The title of this image is Miss Mini. This photo was taken during winter break in a field over near Helena. I took this picture with my new mirrorless Panasonic Lumix camera. I edited the image by brightening my subject and increasing the saturation of her hair in order to make it pop. I wish I would have cropped the image or taken a straighter photo so the car would be more even on either side. In taking this photo I also used a set filter that was already in my camera when taking the shot.

Caeden H- Beach Sunset

 The title of this image is “Beach Sunset”. I took this picture Summer of 2022, at a beach in Port St. Joe. I took this picture with my Iphone 12 pro. I edited this picture with the apple photos app, I increased the exposure, brilliance, highlight, contrast, and saturation. I think this picture would be better if there was not so much dark space in it. It is also slightly blurry on the left hand side and I think that due to camera shake. Overall, I think if I had taken with a tripod it would have been better. 

Joseph R- Plant Shop in Pelham

 This image was taken with a Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ18 at a plant shop in Pelham a few days ago. I increased all colors, especially greens in the shadows, and darkened the trees in the background because they distracted from the already cluttered foreground. I also enhanced the highlights. I think I could’ve made the trees a bit lighter since it ultimately darkened the entire image by a lot.

Caroline M- Tennessee Winter

 The title of this image is Tennessee Winter, it was taken December 29, 2022 in Tennessee. This photo was taken with my Nikon D3300. When I took the picture I knew I wanted it to have a very warm feeling so I turned the saturation up and I put more orange in the picture. I would’ve liked to make this picture brighter without the exposure being too much. I also wish the top of the barn wasn’t in the picture.

Linley W- Clydesales

 I took this picture on Veterans Day at the Veterans Day Parade in Downtown, Birmingham. At this parade, the famous Budweiser Clydesdale horses were there. I took this picture with my Nikon D2500 camera. I edited this picture by cropping it in, adding shadows, increasing the saturation, and increasing the sharpness. This picture culd be better if it was a little less vibrant. 

Nora G- Light

 This was an image I took for the light painting project. I used three different pictures and put them together in this one. I didn’t do much to the lighting, just edited the picture parts together and made sure it fit and looked like one smooth image.

AIdan P- Tree Reflection

This image was taken for the reflections assignment with my phone. I used my TV as the mirror and a Christmas tree is what’s in the picture. The beam of light going across the picture is from me using the flash on my phone. I made sure to take away any detail from the tree to just have the black background and the lights so that it looked less blurry. I wasn’t sure if I should leave the lights orange but I ended up kind of liking it. If there’s one thing I could change it might be to add another color but only one other. This wasn’t my best image but it was creative and pretty interesting so I liked it.

 

Ayla S - Light Painting

 This image is titled, “Light Painting.” It was taken in the studio in December. This image was taken with Mr. Rigsby’s camera. To edit this image, I cropped it, increased the contrast, saturation, and sharpened the photograph. It could be better if the lights had more color.

Alex B- Missing My Love

 I called this image Missing My Love because I took this while going to work alone. It was taken outside of the Galleria. I took it with my iPhone 13, and used Photoshop and the Camera Raw Filter. I think if it was from a better angle it would be better.

Madison R - Drinking Bee

 This photo was taken on SCAD's campus when I visited on November 12th at noon. This photo was taken with my Nikon D3400 and with my zoom lens. I edited this photo using the Camera Raw Filter and bringing up the contrast and saturation. I think this photo could be better if I could have gotten closer to the bee, and it could be a bit clearer. 

Drew B- The Mirror That Looks Within

 The title of the image is The Mirror That Looks Within. I took this at a field a while ago with my Nikon D5600 I used Lightroom to edit the photo. I overall really like this image and am proud of it.
