Victoria D- New York Bikes

I took this picture in New York.  Everyone either walks or rides bikes in New york so I came across these two bikes tied up beside each other and decided to take a picture because i liked the colors and the cute basket on the front of one of the bikes.  I edited this picture by boosting the saturation so the colors can stand out.  I also painted in black on the ground to make the ground look more detailed and dirty looking. 

Alex E- Architecture

I took this photo when I was visiting Atlanta back in December. I saw a lot of cool Architecture in the buildings and this one really caught my eye. I edited this photo with the basic, simple editing and adjusted the colors a bit. One of the things I would change is how I took it. I was in the car while taking this and wish I had been able to get closer to the building.  

Emily W- Fallen Tree

I took this picture in Bluff Park Elementary School’s new garden. The garden had some fallen trees and this one in particular was covered in lichen. I adjusted the image’s curves, levels, brightness, and contrast

Will C- Lego City

This picture is titled Lego City. I took this picture atop the Empire State Building in New York City. I edited this by putting a lens blur on the city scape. I boosted the vibrance and changed the hue to get the blue colors and the warm tones. This is one of my favorite pictures I’ve ever made. I’m really happy with how it turned out because the buildings actually look like toys.

Yesenia S - Children's

This image was taken for the Children Assignment. I really liked how it turned out. I edited this photo by adjusting the levels and curves. I also sharpened the image a little so my model could stand out. Overall, I love this picture because of the sunset; I think it makes it more attractive.

Amelia S- Circles

I took these pictures for the circles assignment and made a poster out of all of them. I love how the poster turned out because I feel that all the images go together. I edited all of them simply, adjusting levels, cubes, and sharpness, so they would look good together. 

Haley Y- Goose

Over the brake I went to Nashville, Tennessee as we were walking to the Parthenon we went to a park. The park has a pond and there were some people that were feeding them so i shaped some pictures. I edited by making an orange foot disappear into fur and brighting up the white.

Haley Y- Standing Out

I took this picture in my back yard. I liked how the one leaf stood out from the rest. To edit this I changed the brightness and contrast. Then I blurred the background more. 

lakeshia B- Never Forgotten

I told this photo in down town for the leaves assignment. I boosted the colors throughout the photo and i cleaned up the side walk and changed the color. In the center i made it so the it was filed with more leaves.  

Mary L- Low Key

I took this picture for the high key and low key assignment. I cropped down the picture and also changed it to black and white. For the exposure I turned it down to negative 1 and also adjusted the curves. I really like how this turned out. 

Shelby C- Blue Circles

This Picture is a blue jacket at Forever 21a few weeks ago, for the circles project. I love the colors in this picture.  edited this by adding contrast and I added the box blur to draw your eyes to the buttons.

Emily W- Hand and Hourglass

I took this photo for the Hands and Feet assignment. I took the picture in the studio in the back room. I usually keep the editing really simple. I adjusted the levels, brightness, and contrast.

Samantha D- Unknown Soldier

I took this picture over the summer at Arlington Cemetery. I adjusted the contrast and made the image a little sharper.

Tripp S- Kilt Wearing Gentleman

This was taken at the Moss Rock art festival. This kilt wearing gentlman was a blacksmith selling iron working stuff and things. I am very happy with this shot just because of the contrast of cooler colors in the foreground and warmer fall colors in the background. Tr

Ashley V- Chelsea

This is a picture of my friend Chelsea, I was taking her senior pictures for her. I really liked the leaves and how they were definitely fall. All i really did for this picture was ad some vibrance and saturation. Its the perfect cliché fall picture. Thats probably what i like most. 

Katie .- Ballerina Feet

I took this picture of the hands and feet project. I took this picture at my friend’s dance studio. I laid down on the floor with my camera and just started taking pictures. I edited this picture my lightening the image, and adjusted the levels, then I made the picture black and white. I really like how the picture turned out, I like how the front foot is more in focus than the back foot. But I wish that I zoomed out more to show more of the front leg. Overall, I’m happy with the outcome!

Amelia S- Cracked Face

I edited this picture for our demo project. I followed instructions from a website and the end product turned out like this. I didn’t edit the image much I just adjusted the shadows and highlights once I was finished editing the crack. I think it turned out really good

Stephanie P- Chair

I took this picture for the circles, chairs, or doors assignment. I was taking pictures of circles, but this picture works for chairs also. The first thing I did was make the background back and white and then I boosted the saturation on the whole picture to make the background have darker blacks and to make the chair pop more. I am really happy with how this picture turned out.

Emily B- Wilderness

Katie W- Spinning Flames

Morgan Ann C- Bound

Rebecca G- Uncle Noel

Victoria D- Pale Flock

Will C- Falling Apart

Will C- Make it Levitate

I took this picture a few weeks ago on morris ave in Downtown Bham. I had to take two pictures and blend them together, and erase the stool abbey was laying on. I like how it turned out. If I could change it, I would have her in better lighting. Her body is too dark and the background is too light. Also, her hair is sort of spotty from when I had to clone stamp her hair. Overall I am happy with it and I think it turned out good for my first levitation attempt.
