color




This picture was taken indoors under dim lighting for effect... i then took the image and pulled out the back ground. i took out imperfections and the car's emblem off the front so that the attention fell on the color and not the type of car enhanced the color a tich( this is about color) i realize that this picture is not just a wall of color or anything but i still would argue that the color IS the main focus and the first thing you notice.and the end.

fast shutter speeds












The bottom three pictures were the ones i thought tured out the best . i set my shutter spped at about 200 when in the gym because i couldnt go any faster (it was dark inside) but on the one of my little brother swingin away i finally ended up with a good result at about 350 but the batt still has some blurr.









slow shutter speeds
























the two light pictures were taken with the slowest speed i had on the camera and were used with flashlights in a dark room. the picture of my brother on his bike was my lame attempt at panning. the pictures above these were the not so good shots i got. but it made for some good practice












small app





my app was set at about 3.5 in this picture and because i wanted to show the power of the app i did no editing to this picture. no blurr tool or anything of the sort.it turned out amazing just because of the crisp edges where the image blurrs and it really shows the difference app can make in depth of feild. the context of the picture was inspired by a walk through the memorial on veterans day Tuesday.

large app




This photo was taken at a large app and included everything in focus. the morning time when it was dark was a perfect time to take a large app picture. i took out some light posts and upped the blues a lil some cropping and vvvvuuaalllaaaa!












































This is my beautiful pal Hanna, she let me take pics so i could get my final result (the two pictures put together) i set her up in the studio and used lighting that would make a dramatic shadow in the right place. i played around with different shutter speeds but made sure to shoot at 100 ISO so that even blown up most of these pics have good quality. i edited the photos similar to how ou would any studio portait. i worked on her skin and eyes and make tone adjustments and levels adjustments. i pulled out all the coloe on the final and kept in the color on the lilly mostly because i love the splash of orange on the tip. i also learned how to take the two pictures and combine them on just a blank file then flattened the image so it came as one.
