Gillian E - Wagon Wheel

I like this picture mostly because it has a lot of texture in it. I took this picture in leeds by the train tracks. I edited it by changing the curves and levels. I also gave it a tint. 

Jonah T - Sign

My favorite picture was the picture of the sign. I took the picture downtown. i edited it by putting both a black and white and a curves layer on the picture. It could have been better if I had focused more on the leaves on the ivy. I chose it as my best because it is the best composition. I had fun with this assignment.

Lauren J - Portrait

In this Portrait project, this was my favorite portrait that I took. This picture is a picture of my best friend Marie and we were at Veterans park. She was sitting down on a stage and she was just looking out into the park. I edited this picture by first changing it to black and white because I felt it added to her facial expression. Then I messed with the levels, curves, etc. till I felt that it looked good. This picture can be better by maybe focusing in more on her. I chose this one as my favorite because after I did all of the editing, I really liked the way it turned out. I really enjoyed doing this project because I really love taking pictures of people and I especially liked working with the people I worked with this time. They were really great subjects to work with. 

Jakob C - The Great Sport Shots

My title is The Great Sport shots. My pictures were made after our throwing session every tuesday and we took them at veteran park. I edited my pictures by having them cropped and had some features on them. My pictures could be better if i kinda focused a little more and took more time in them. I chose it as my best because i thought it was my best picture and had some candid again. My experience with the project was a whole lot of fun. The crew had a great time messing around and posing and i have to say I’m the best model in the world.

Jack S - The Constitution

My favorite photo I edited was my picture of the Constitution, the title of the work is The Constitution. I took this picture in my house using the replica of the Constitution which I bought when I was in Washington D.C. I edited it by applying the black and white adjustment and adjusting the colors. Also I used the curves adjustment to change the lighting. It could be better if I were to take more time arranging the picture. My overall experience with this assignment is I enjoyed it and am happy with the pictures that I took.

Devin T

I enjoy this picture of the yellow flowers. This was taken outside of my house in my driveway. The flowers are well-centered, and the sun shines directly onto the yellow of the flowers, which creates a beautiful image. There are no shadows in the way of the flowers, so the flowers stand out. This was one of my pictures for the Black and White Picture Project.

Libby S - Color

I chose this photo because it is one of my favorites I have taken in this class. I like the vibrant colors of the flower and the overall composition of the picture. I used the rule of thirds and the background was pretty consistent in color. I used the dodge tool to brighten everything and boosted the brightness and contrast to make everything look more blended despite the added contrast. I never expected that a simple picture of a flower I took would turn out to be such a good photograph.
