Project 3 Balance and Contrast

Diptychs:

Diptych: 

Jonah in motion. I wanted to show movement and playing with this was really cool. Because it took forever to capture these. took out a lot of the saturation but made sure to make the Jonah's silhouette a littler darker which made it make the photo better.     

  

Diptych:

Different point of views. I wanted to make these photos look different so I took this then turned around and took another. I made sure to mess with the clarity of both photos. I mad one look very blurred and one look very clear and light.  

Diptych:

Up close and sharp. I messed with the exposure and contrast of both photos. the photo at right I brought the contrast down and the photo at left I brought the contrast and exposure way up. To make it look like the cactus are sort of moving. 

Triptychs:

Triptych:

No sleep. I messed with the contrast and also the movement made this photo look ten times cooler. I also made sure to to take the saturation way down to get this very cool tone in the photo but made sure to keep a little bit of vibrance in. As you can see it in his face and jackets. 

Triptych:

Express your self. The movement made by Libby in this makes the mood of the photo very fun and the picture almost looks black and white but the saturation of it makes it pop. 

Contrast In Scale:

Contrast In Scale:

Go Cards. I made sure to take down the saturation but made the reds come out and pop with some vibrance. This picture is really cool and since the background is black in white you can still get a little bit of color which makes this picture look so dope! 

Contrast In Scale:

Fall time, Is the Best Time. I messed with the darks and lights and I toned down more of the highlights in this to make sure the audiences attention is on the leaf and not the surrounding objects in the background.

Kaleidoscopes:

This is one chandler kaleidoscopes. I messed with the feathering and I didn't want to have the full feather on there so I dimmed it and it made it look really cool.

This is my second kaleidoscope and again I didn't want to have the full feathering affect so I just made it very dark to get a feeling of the light pulling you closer and how you are drawn to it.

This is my burger kaleidoscope. I wanted to experiment with cool pictures I took and it ended up looking really cool because the ketchup makes a face.

This is my outdoor kaleidoscope. I didn't have the feathering affect and again it still looks pretty cool. And I took the contrast way up in order to pull your attention to the colorful balls.

Color And Grids

Project Descriptions: In our second project we were supposed to find four different types of photos and each photo was supposed to represent a different type of mood and colors. We experimented with warm colors, complementary colors, monochrome colors, and a photo that had a certain mood to it.  

Monochrome:

Warm Colors:

Cool Colors:

Complimentary Colors:

Mood Original :

Mood Edited:

The reason this is my mood is because this represents how I feel 75% of the time. Somethings in life are dark but you can't let the dark effect how I live so, I let light in. This picture has a thousand words. And what ever word is what this picture means to you. 

Color and Moods

The photographer of this photo used warm colors to express a tone to make this forest look warm and peaceful. And he highlighted the yellows and the reds.

Best Photos With Framing And Compostion

My Contact Sheet: Has 8 different shots and edits of various angles and techniques which were: Rule Of Thirds, Frame With In A Frame, Filling The Frame, Close Up, Diagonal Lines, Bugs Eye View, Birds Eye View and, Leading Lines.






Close Up - In order for me to take this photo I had to stand on a chair in a flower shop and reach way up and get real close to a amazing glass chandler with out moving.















Frame With In A Frame - We were taking a class field trip and I saw this wonderful phone booth with some unusual art and decided to take a photo.

Filling The Frame - I entered a flower shop and saw this wonderful setup and decided top capture a nice photo.

Best Photos With Framing And Compostion

Bugs Eye View - I had to crawl under this sculpture and lay on the platform on my back to capture this photo.

Leading Lines - I was in my backyard doing yard work and then I saw these cool balls and decided to capture it.  

Rule Of Thirds - I had to walk up some stairs, through some offices and through the emergency exit to take this wonderful photo. 

birds Eye View - I had to go down the emergency stairs and saw these colorful flowers and couldn't pass them with out taking a photo.

My Summer

The best thing I did over the summer was go inner-tubing 60mph and flipping over and not knowing how to swim but having a life jacket saved my life. And after swimming with a life jacket on I immediately wanted to jump of the cliff. The cliff was only about 7 feet in the air, it was terrifying but I over came my fears my fears and jumped! The lake was called Swan Lake in the northern part of Montana.
