8/23/16 - Text Practice 8/26/16 - Project

Final Portait Project Reflection Reflection: The inspiration for my magazine cover came from a tutorial I had completed for a digital art class. The same elements I borrowed from them were the layered background style, and the text color. After, I added myown personal touches by adding myself to the cover, creating a edited/warped title, and I added some things about myself as well as a quote that I go by. The quote describes how it can never hurt to attempt spmething, even though you fail, at least you took the opportunity instead of never tyring at all. This style overall describes myself well as I am well centered, balanced, and mishievious. Decicated to Harambe.

8/29/16 - Portrait: Studio Photography

Fig 5-2. By looking away from the camera, the subject creates an emoptional aspect of deep concentration, seriosness, as well as a sense of sadness.

Fig 5-3. The high contrast of the image and composition contribute to the cooks emotionless way of expression and the overall seeriousness of his stance. There is also almost a feeling of fear affiliated with the image.

Fig 5-4. By seperating the photograph into tiles, the photographer creates better balance because of the equal amount of color and composition in each cube. Therefore it would look better if the image were seperated into cubes than just by itself. 

Fig 5-5. The photographers use of high brightness in the portrait expresses happiness, the darker clothes as well as the gray backgroyund also emphasize the subjects face.

Fig 5-6. The tiltewd angle creates unity among the three subjects being photographed and emphasizes happiness from being together.

8/31/16 - Rule of Thirds Applied 

Before Applying Rule of Thirds

This image is just a raw portrait photograph with a natural background. However it doesn't demonstrate the the rule of thirds.

After Applying Rule of Thirds

Now that the image has been modefied the focal point has changed from the center, to the right and left hand corners.

After Applying Rule of Thirds

Since I wanted to emphasize the dogs face, I made grids and placed the face in the center of the first row.

This is a bicycle rack in the street in the form of an M due to its curved shape.

This is the outside of a small cabin  like room that creates the shape of an A viewed from the front.

This is a sort of towel hanger in the shape of a lower case N.

This is basically a small couch chair that I took a picture of backwards to make it look like a U.

For some reason wix made the original image very dark, but it used to be a bench in the form of an E. 

Nothing special here, just my hand in the form of an L.

10/24/16 - Education & Career PowerPoint

11/03/16 - Aperture Priority

ISO 100

Shutter Speed 1/640

Aperture F 3.5

The first photograph was taken with aperture of f/ 3.5, and as you can see the image is very out of focus, along with the background,   but the cup was in focus. This was the result of a really small aperture, with little light let into the camera.

ISO 100

Shutter Speed 1/100

Aperture F 9

The second photograph was taken using a aperture of f/ 9, with a more clearer focus on the background, and the image is less blurry around the cup, as more light was used.

ISO 500

Shutter Speed 1/60

Aperture F 22

The third photograph had a vastly higher aperture of f/ 22. Now the image has a very large depth of filed, and the details of the background are much more recognizable than the first image.

11/07/2016 - Shutter Speed Prioity

1/800

1/250

1/125

As you can see the first photograph taken with a shutter speed of 1/800, shows the most amount of brightness and blur out of all the three photos. The object pictured is also not very clear, and you are unable to tell what it really is.

The second photograph was taken with a lower shutter speed of 1/250. Now, the moving object is significantly more clearer, as is somewhat more recognizable than the first photograph. The brightness  also decreased as well.

The third and last image is the best one, taken with a somewhat lower shutter of 1/125. This photograph is crystal clear, and the moving object is clearly seen, without any blurriness or extreme brightness. 

1/125

11/09/16 - ISO Priority

200

This photograph of the spring was taken with an ISO of 200. Therefore, the image is not very blurry, or has any signs of grain and static.

800

The second image was taken with an ISO of 800. Compared to the first image, this one begins to show little but noticeable change in the light sensitivity including the quality of the image.

16000

The last image with an ISO of 16,000, compared to the other pictures shows considerable change in the resolution of the image, as well as add more electronic noise to the image.

11/17/16 - Relationship Between Aperture, Shutter Speed and ISO

Aperture: F / 25

Shutter Speed: 1 / 1250

ISO - 1280

In this image, all the setting were changed manually. The ISO, shutter speed, and  aperture are present. The shutter speed of  1/1250 was able to capture the book flipping in the air, it did such a good job that even the title and cover can be easily read, The high ISO made the area around the book very fuzzy and grainy.Aperture remained mainly low, allowing little light to affect the quality of the image.

11/29/16 - Correcting Defects, Blemishes and Wrinkles

Original Image
The second image was edited using the camera raw tools. There has been some decrease in  wrinkles and higher background lighting.
The last image is the final edit in Photoshop. Now that the image has been significantly edited, Clint now has had a significant loss in wrinkles, imperfections, and is looking as young as ever.

11/30/16 - Restore Aged Image

Before

After

Photo Edit Description:  This was probably the hardest edit I've done so far on Photoshop yet. Using the spot healing tool, stamp tool, and patch tool I was able get rid of the rips and smudges on the image, replace the corners, and restructure the  ripped faces. The patch tool did the most help, as it replaced the ripped parts of the photograph with untouched, cleaner parts.
