Model

This is my model shot for project 3 in digital photography. I cropped out my model from the original image and used the healing brush to get rid of age spots and imperfections in the skin and then used the clone stamp tool to get rid of the awkward bright spot that was created by the break in the tree line. I originally was going to crop it out but found it much easier to just use the clone stamp to create more trees.

Color Basket

This is a picture that I took in photography class for the photo shoot. I brought it in to photoshop and played with the levels but what i really like most about this photo is the closeness of it and the texture and detail it shows. I like how its difficult to tell at first what its a picture of and the mystery is part of what makes it so interesing as well as the bright purple object in the background.

Simple Matchbook

I was looking for old product imagery from the 1970s and found this picture of a matchbook that i thought was really simple but interesting. I like how it uses dull colors like most products you would see in that era and the simplistic imagery of the match and the flame.

Ominous tracks

This was anther picture I found on a photography website that I really liked because of its ominous and gloomy feel that it portrays. I like how the black has been darkened and the light of the rails have been brought out for some interesting contrast. It also creates the direction of the piece because your eye is naturally focused on the contrasted rail and you follow it throughout the piece.

Article Brief

This is my two page spread article brief for my publication design magazine. I wanted to make it look like a review for an upcoming game that you would find in any gaming magazine. The only problem was that I had to make an infographic for the top right that would fit well with the rest of the article. The ther issue with this is that the background color should be a dark black but I cant for the life of me get it to show up that way when I save it as a jpeg or pdf.

Garden Sculpture

I thought this was a great example of 3D artwork and design that I really wanted to put on my blog because its so huge and the concept is incredible. combining all of these colors and foliage to create a really interesting scultpure that i can only imagine takes a lot of maintaining. The photo is great because it really shows you the magnitude of this sculpture and how gigantic it is because the people are so smalled compared to it and you can see the railing.

Cyrpus Building

This is a picture i found on a travel website that displays different pictures of places in Greece. I really liked this picture for several reasons. first I love the angle that the photographer took because it gets a great view of the stairs that creates direction in the piece. Also, i really like the colors which mustve been brought out in photoshop because they are so bright and vibrant and the greens and blues go really well together.
