Historical Houses-2013

For this shoot, I went to the Mountain View Cemetery. 

 For this photo I cropped it a bit to center the circle.  I adjusted the blacks, whites, lights, highlights, and shadows.  I really like this photo because it shows a great detail shot of an old crypt.

I again cropped slightly ad adjusted the technical things to bring out more details in the shot.  I love this picture because it has a sense of space and depth.  It also has very interesting details and a repeating pattern.

Surrealism

 For this image, I played with the colors and brightness to get it the way I wanted (lightroom).  In photo shop, I put the picture of the crow in front of the sun, I then put the sun on his hands, and adjusted the sun so that it looks like it's sinking into his hands.

 In photo shop I created a clipping mask on the rock, and put in an American flag.  Then I made it so it looks like the rock is painted.  I then put the crows on the other rock to make the rock look giant.

I created a clipping mask on the dog's eye and made his eye a bunch of branches from a tree.

People of San Francisco-Semester Final

I enhanced all of the colors and the contrast in Bridge.  In PhotoShop, I made the entire photo black and white. After that, I used the black paintbrush to put all of the color back into the guitarist, so that he's the focus of attention.

In Bridge I enhanced the colors and contrast.  In PhotoShop I made it black and white then put the color back into the man so that he pops out more.

I brought up the contrast and the colors.  I made the photo black and white and put the color back into the bongo player in PhotoShop.

I, again, brought up the colors and contrast in Bridge.  After in PhotoShop I took out all the color except for the two siblings.

In Bridge I enhanced the contrast and colors.  In PhotoShop I took out the color from the background to take away the distractions of the background.

After enhancing the colors and contrast in Bridge, I went into PhotoShop to create a black and white background while the teenage boy stays in color.
