For this assignment I chose the subject of animals. This proved to be surprisingly difficult to do because they would not sit still, and when they do they attack the camera. In order to take my photos I had to "tail" my cat, JoJo, for around two hours. Then I had to take each photo before he scratched the camera lens. Best Photo:Editing: I cut the photo into two layers; Cat and pillow. I then made the Pillow low clarity, and slightly bumped the clarity on the cat. I raised the overall exposure, highlights, and shadows. 9 Other Good Photos:

In this assignment i had to use studio lighting and window lighting to take portraits of people. i then had to put them into photoshop, resize them, paste them into a new file, and create a white border around them.
For my fourth photo assignment I chose to do Black & White. For B&W I had to edit the photo and make it black and white. When I sat down to import and edit my photos I realized that I forgot to format my camera's memory when i left to take photos. As a result I thought I had taken 75 photos for this subject, when in reality i had taken 20 photos. Luckily I was doing B&W, so I could use some of my old, unused photos and use them for black and white. Best Photo:Editing: I used Camera raw filter to make it B&W, to darken the shadows, and Bump up the highlights. 9 Other Good Photos:For my third photo assignment I chose to do light painting. Light painting is when you go into a dark area, set the camera to a high shutter speed and to a low ISO. During the photo you move around lights to "paint" in the darkness. When I took my best photo, the flashlight that I was using as a makeshift lightbulb fell off of the Rainbow Disco Ball as I moved the ball, this combined with me quickly taping the flashlight back on created the photo you see below.

For the second subject I chose to do nature/landscape. In order to comply to the criteria I had to take photos that "says something about nature and the landscapes we live in." I found my photo subjects by walking around saline. When I initially left my house, on foot, to go shooting it was 9:00am I returned home at 4:00pm. I took no breaks, I walked continuously for 7 hours. The next day I could barely stand. Best Photo.Editing: I created two files, one with very low clarity, and one with high clarity with upped vibrance. I then edited out the flower from the low clarity photo and placed the high clarity flower in it's place. 9 Other Good Photos.In this assignment I had to use photoshop to crop a photo of somebody, and make it black and white. Then I made a new canvas, made it for times bigger, then divided it into quarters. I then pasted it the black and white photo 4 times into the new canvas, and put them into the 4 sections. Finally I added color to each of the photos.
For this subject, Macro, I had to switch my camera into Macro Focus by hitting the flower button whilst in manual mode. I then had to take closeups of my photo subjects. I found my subjects by walking around my neighborhood and taking shots of interesting things that caught my eye. Whilst I was taking my best photo (shown below) I was side tackled by a random dog, luckily I got the shot and the camera was unharmed. The rest of the photos where taken uneventfully. Overall I had a fun time and i took some good pictures. Best Photo:9 Other Good Shots: |
