Kate M.- Red Leaves

I took this picture a few weeks ago at Avondale Park downtown. To edit it, I bumped up the contrast and brightness. I also clone stamped some sticks and background stuff out of this picture. I dodged and burned it to draw more attention to the staircase and make it brighter. finally, I used a Nik filter to turn the leaves in the back that red-orange color. I really like this picture.

Lupita G - Soon

I took this at Tip Top during the sunset with a Canon 80D. I think it could be better if it wasn’t so bright by the sun.

Ashley W- Cloudy Day

I took this with a Canon t3 in a bathtub. I really just messed around with this really heavy, and I don’t necessarily like the end product but I was trying to go outside my comfort zone. Idk how to make this better yet because I’m still messing around with this type of editing. Rigsby told me I need to say more on this but idk what else to say soooooo...

Grace C -Wings -- Film

Okay, so I took this on a roof in downtown Birmingham. This is Molly, but what else is new. I love the film scratch look. The only thing I would change is the time of day we shot because the sky was blown out :/

Justin C - Thoughts

I took this photo back while doing my individual portrait assignment. It’s a pretty standard picture with nothing super special. I edited it by adjusting the vibrance to make it a lot cooler, as before it was super warm and kind of annoying. I moved the levels a little bit to bring out more of a contrast as well.

Dayne M- Supermoon

This image was taken in my neighborhood the night of the supermoon. It was taken with my Nikon D5500 and I edited the image by adjusting the hue and saturation and adding a lens flare. Overall, it could be better if I had a better zoom and the moon was more in focus.

Ryan F- Cascade

The title of the image is “Cascade.” It was taken on October 30t, 2016 at the Buck Creek waterfall. It was taken with a Kodak Z990. I edited it with an Analog filter from the Nik Collection in Photoshop. It could be better if it was taken with a better camera.

Brody G- Danger Ranger

The title of this image is Danger Ranger because it is truck in this photo is a Ford Ranger. I took this photo at the Sparks of Insanity car show. I took this with my Sony a6000 and to edit it I played with the curves and made it black and white. This photo could be better if that pole right behind it wasn’t there but oh well, I still really enjoy the photo.

Rere H- Beauty

I really like this photo I called it Beauty. I took this photo with a Nikon D3000 at the botanical gardens last year. I changed the entire color of the flower I darkened the background and added lots of tint. I also added a layer to brighten the image. I hope you like it :)r

Grace H- Screen

This photo was taken with my canon 80D using manual mode. This is a photo taken on my patio. The sun was setting and it made a shadow on the screen. In Photoshop I edited the highlights/shadows. I wanted the shadow imprint to “pop” so I increased the vibrance.

Kate M.- Clouds

I took this self portrait a couple of weeks ago with my canon rebel t3. I did some minor edits on my face and I made the picture black and white. I used cloud brushes on top of the original image. I also added some shadow to the clouds. I think this picture is simple but I like it. It looks a little weird because the original image gets out of focus on the side while the clouds stay clear, but I think its fine that way.

DrewF- S65

This image was taken at work October 24th around 2-3. I edited this photo with light and vibrance adjustments then finished it off with a nik collection filter. This photo could be better if it was taken in a different atmosphere.

Chloe J- Bella

I named this photo “Bella” because I took it of my friend Bella. I took this in the studio in October with  a pentax. To edit it I adjusted the tone as well as the contrast but nothing much else. To make this picture bette I would probably soften up her face bit and maybe crop it. But overall I really like the way this photo turned out.

Jordan H- Tennis Court

I titled this image Tennis Court because I took this on a tennis court. I took this a few weeks before school started of my friend Mychael. I took this with my Canon 5d mark iii, and I edited it on Lightroom by adjusting the light and tone. I also blurred her skin and added dodge and burn to her eyes. I think this image could be better if maybe she was smiling a bit more, but overall I am pleased with how it turned out.

Ryan F- Analog LLWR

The title of this image is “Analog LLWR.” It was taken on October 21, 2016, on a trail by a creek behind Hoover High School. It was taken with a Kodak Z990. I edited it by using an Analog filter from the Nik collection to give it a more natural look. It could be better if the highlights weren’t so bright.

Grant S.- Autumn

This photo is titled Autumn. I took this photo in an area behind the school. I took it with my Nikon Camera. I edited by turning the vibrance up and messing with the highlights and shadows. This photo could be better if it was more focused.

Trey D- Untitled

I took this picture out side of school on the side of the road. I took it with a Pentax K100D. I used some of the filters and gave it a reddish tint to it. I also sharpened the image as well.

Rere H - Beauty

The tittle of my image is called Beauty. It was taken a couple of months ago at the Botanical Gardens. It was taken with a Nikon D3000. I actually didn’t edit this image because I like the natural colors and and the angle in which the photo was taken .

Justin C- Jeremy

I took this photo for my independent shoot of portraits. I edited this photo by dropping the vibrance a lot, and creating a cross from black ad white strips. I did some color adjusting for his eyes and ears, as they were a little more red than the rest of the image. I like the photo and how it turned out but I wish that his head wasn’t as tilted to the right as it was.

Ben D- Skidz

The title of this image is “Skidz” for obvious reasons. I took this around about two months ago at a drift event at Midpond circuit. I shot this on my Canon t5i with a 55-250 f/3.5-5.6 IS lens. I added some blur in Photoshop after the fact, and then messed around in lightroom a bunch to get some better clarity and to work with the black and white effects a bit. Overall, I like this photo, but would’ve gotten a better angle if I could’ve.
