K, so took pictures of these fortunes, i dunno... an abundance of fortunes just have been showing up lately. I'm finding them everywhere, so i took some pics. weird. apparently love is in the air. . a found the wrinkled ripped one in the laundry, i found the REJOICE! the love you feel is reciprocated one in the pocket of my jacket. and the, don't worry, your love will never stand idly by and watch you fall, one on the back of my bed... oh and there's another one that says reward yourself with a special gift, but i didn't post it big like these ones... but anyways, ya boring. just messed around with the angles, and messed with the levels.

Rejoice! The love you feel is reciprocated.

Say "I love you" and mean it. You can't do that enough.

Don't worry - your love will never stand idly by and watch you fall.

I took pictures through this tunnel of these books, they interested me. a really like the effect that the tunnel gave it. It really gave me a different point of view that i liked a lot. I tried many different things this week, maybe ill try to perfect some of the other ideas i had for this up coming week.

Mr. CHS!!

In this photo, I cropped the picture in her eye into a circle and then moved it to the center of her eye, now it looks like she's watching Mr. CHS =] 

I made the color in her eye more visually interesting, it was just kinda gray and "blah" before. So I added some color. I dodged the whites of her eyes as well, and in the overall picture I took out a little bit of the reds and yellows. 

SOOOO... these are all my pictures i took of Mr. CHS.

it was very hard to get and good not blurry pictures, because I didn't want to use my flash because I really don't like the lighting that flash gives a picture. So I just made my shutter speed longer, and because there is a lot of movement involved, many of the pictures are blurry. Oh and to top it all off, my camera died right after the synchronized swimming. So that really put a damper on my day... Overall I got a few nice pictures, but I wish I would have checked my battery, and I could have gotten more clear shots. For everything that happened though, I'd say I  did alright. 

are you pleased Mr. Twitchell

WEEK #4

This is Logan. Logan is two. He's a really happy kid. Ha, Ok so to the pictures... Well, a couple of them had a orangish tint to them, so I had to fix their levels, and the other ones I just played around with.  On the 4th one I blurred the background, and I'm not sure if I like it yet, cause it kinda looks blurry everywhere. =[ But other than that I think I like the way they turned out. :)

Week #3:

Just a little something for you to think about.. =D

No but really, these are just some random pictures I decided to take for this week.

I've never really been a big studio picture taker. I don't like to set things up really (thats why you don't get a lot of those assignments) ha. K. So I thought I'd do something new for once. 

I really didn't do anything to these images, I tried messing with the levels and the Hue/Saturation, but in the end i liked them original the best. 

Week #2

 I took these pictures one night after school, and so I thought this could be my theme for the week, but there really weren't any other very good sunsets this week =/ they were all more gray than anything. But ill post some so you can see the gray anyways :( but its boring.

These I did not photoshop. The one above I just lightened.

 

____________________________________________

These ones are actually a SunRISE that I took before school.

These photos I did not photoshop. The first one below I only cropped. The one above was photoshoped though, I Burnt the bottom of the picture out i felt it was too distracting, but when i cropped it out it just looked funny. So i just made it less noticeable.  

WEEK #1

 For these pictures I just used the burn tool to give a more dramatic look. I thought this would be an appropriate topic considering the theme of the week :)
