Ella H- Fast Times


 The name of this image is “Fast Times.” I took this photo with my point and shoot camera at the metro station in Washington DC. The image is composed of images taken between March 27th-28th at different metro stations. To edit this image, I overlaid the image of the train body onto a base image which just consisted of the front of the metro train. I applied a blur filter to the train body, as well as decreased the opacity of the overlaid image so it would not overpower the base image. To keep the front of the train visible, I erased the train body which lay over the front of the train, blending to ensure it was seamless. To edit the overall image, I increased the contrast and saturation, while I decreased the exposure.

I love this image! The contrast between the movement of the train and the ground looks great. The only change I would make would be to add a little bit more color to the image. Good job!

Very cool! awesome contrast. If I were to change anything, I'd just edit the colors a bit more. but very good job!!!

I like this image a lot! I think you did a great job incorporating the moving train but also being able to have the non motion. - HHS

This is an amazing photo! I love the way that the movement of the train contrasts with the stillness of the ground. The movement makes for a very interesting and sound photo. My only recommendation is to enhance the colors a little bit. The picture is a little dull and could be a bit more vibrant.

I really love this photo! I love the dramatic blur and how you can still see what’s going on, but it’s a little bit trippy. The only thing I will say is I wonder what it would look like if the front part of the train was not blurry and blurred into the back of the train. Just a thought! Overall great work!

This such a cool shot even though this person added blurred affects it still looks like they didn't even touch it. It's very cool that you went to Washington I'd love to go one day. And even though it's blurred I can still see whats going on. Some blurred photos you cant really tell the image anymore. Great Job!

I love the effect motion photos give. It's dull colors look really mellow. It's a really good image.
