Experimenting for Assignment 2





 In the pictures above I really wanted to capture the motion of the athlete while running and jumping. I was able to capture that by having a high shutter speed. 


The picture above I really wanted to focus on all three cones and was somewhat successful. 



In the picture above I tried slowed down my shutter speed to have some blur to show motion in the athlete.

Black & White

 




The photograph below is the one I chose to edit. The side of the science building is what is pictured below. This photograph allowed me to be able to be creative and come up with ways to make it look different while following the same theme. I decided to stay with a gloomy/dark feel to each edit. 




The edit below I decided to play around with the brightness/contrast before applying the settings for the sepia effect. I did this to give it a darker look and highlight the sky a bit more. 





In the next edit I went ahead lowered the brightness of the image and brought the contrast up tp give it that gloomy feel. I used the settings for the Cooltone that were provided. 




In the next edit I chose to play around with the color balance. I wanted to make this feel like a late winter afternoon and really display a purple sunset like we've been experiencing in Mckenzie. This edit really reminded of that. The purple really lit up the sky and building.




This following edit I went off theme and decided to make the image feel like a night vision feel. To make this happen I played around with the levels tool. 




My last edit is my absolute favorite. In this edit I chose to pick up the contrast and brought down that brightness. Then I used the doge and burn tool. I did this to help make it look like there is an incoming storm. I felt really good about this edit.











Reflecting Natures Beauty

The moments that I spend in fields, mountains, by any body of waters, or hiking trails, I feel at peace as I am surrounded by natures beauty...
