Architecture

This project is to show architectural features of a building or structure and make them stand out and show their uniqueness. For this assignment I took a photo of my fireplace  because it is very dramatic and is very unique compared to other fireplaces.

During this assignment i learned many things that i never knew before including how to recognize and appreciate unique architectural features that i never thought about before.  I also learned the creativity that people apply to be different than everyone else.

Puns

This assignment was to describe a phrase or pun with words and also to make interesting, but make it a real definition of the pun or phrase.

During this assignment i learned lots including how to be much more creative with the photos that i create because this project forced me to leave my comfort zone and detail the photos much different than what i am used to. I also learned many puns are humerous and make more sense after putting pictures with them

Black and White

This assignment was to take some images to make a photo look like it was meant to be a black and white photo. Also the assignment tested how creative you could be because taking black and white photos are very difficult to take.

Before

After

ISO: 64
Aperture: f/4
Shutter Speed: 1/125







During this assignment i learned many things including how interesting and creative you can make any black and white photos because it adds so many detail by just allowing two colors to show.

Dictionary

This assignment was to choose 4 different words and select pictures to define and describe each word and also include the real definition in words on the same page.

During this assignment i learned many new tools that will help me edit photos from now on. some things i learned were the erase tool to erase the top layer to allow the back layer to show and how to alter and changes photos that were not originally mine, but make it look like mine.

Macro

This assignment was to get a close up photo using the "macro" setting on the camera and reveal detail that not many people always see.

Before

After

ISO: 200
Aperture: f/2.8
Shutter Speed: 1/30






Some things that I learned during this assignment was the importance of each photo taken and also how unique each photo is no matter what it is. I also became more familiar with the macro button on the camera to get a higher quality picture.

Portrait

This assignment was to take a portrait of a person in a studio with lights in specific locations to light up the subject to its best ability. We also had to take another portrait near a window using the natural light from outside to light up the subject's face.

During this assignment I learned a lot of preparation and planning is necessary to take a quality photo unlike what i thought before where you can take a quick photo, then your done. I also learned  the ability to show somebodies personality and happiness in a still photo

Gimp 4 :School Content

This project was to capture a image of the school and make it look like a different place. some examples are making the hall way a race track or what i did which was making the road a river.

During this project i learned that a picture can be changed drastically from its original photo. I also realized how interesting you could make a photo look just by changing simple things on it.
