This picture is made by desaturating it then using the burn tool. I used the burn tool on me (the person). I like this picture because, once again the photography is spectacular. This picture is cool because of the tree and the sun shining through. I really liked the original picture and I wanted to make it a little better and I think it looks really cool
For this project i used a picture of me. I put a filter on it and used the burn tool to make the shadow darker. I liked this picture because it shows my bun (that I wear basically everyday), but it also shows the sun and the tree. I think Katie took this picture, and its really good.
For this project I took a picture of Katie and did a filter and color replacement. This picture looked cool and I liked how the sun gave her shadows and how the light hit her. I chose a filter that emphasized this idea. I also did the color replacement because I wanted to make her stand out and still have a cool background. I thought this turned out really well!

cork-board

For this project, we had to make a project that Incorporated 5 pictures that we created during the year. I chose my HOPE project, one of the 6 projects, wordle, a tutorial, and a visual pun. We also had to incorporate a boarder which i put on my "information" (its fake). I changed the colors of the push-pins and had the idea that they were on a cork board.

HOPE

Similar to the 6 pictures series, this project was based on the movie Hotel Rwanda. A theme in this movie is hope, which is what I did this project on. I took pictures that to me made me feel hope. I choose a picture with a light in the middle of darkness, friends making a peace sign with their hands, a rainbow and a candle or a flame. This theme of hope is portrayed in the movie Hotel Rwanda because they had hope.

series of 6

For this project we had to create 6 pictures that went together in a common theme. This theme had to be related to the themes found in the movie "Hotel Rwanda". My theme was "black and white" to prove that everyday tings are black and white, and to point out racism based off the uncontrollable color of one's skin. My favorite picture is of the world in black and white, and how in America's eyes they are all white and stand out compared to the rest of the world. The picture with beautiful hands was modeled by Erin Clark.
