Fine Art Template

Week 10: Edit and Photography Post
Sunset: 6-30-2007; 8:35pm; Hawaii; f 18; 1/1600; Cannon EOS 30D; tripod
Flower: 1/26/2010; 3:19pm; Rexburg, ID; f 4.9; 1/32; Nikon Coolpix L1; handheld

I took the picture of the sunset in Hawaii just after my senior year of high school. I love the color in this picture and think the template turned out pretty cool. I took the picture of the flower at The Floral Shoppe in Rexburg using my micro setting. I made this template in Photoshop by creating a template first, then inserting the image behind the rectangles. I then created a clipping mask.

Sherriff: 3-3-2010; 5:42pm; Hotel, Bannack, MT; f 5.6; 1/10sec; Sony DSLR-A100; tripod

These are my favorite pictures of our Bannack Montana Trip. I thoroughly enjoyed the trip and taking all the pictures I was able to take. “Bucket” was just an extremely close macro of the texture of a bucket. “Enjoy the simple things” is one of my favorite pictures from the trip because Buddha was so excited to have her square icecream cone! I love it! “Lantern” was taken in the doctor’s house, I like the shallow look of the shot. “Piano” is a pretty generic shot, but I thought I would put it up, because I liked it. “Lock” is another favorite picture of mine. I took this one looking out to the Masonic Temple with a shallow depth of field. “Masonic Temple” was taken with the sun high in the sky blowing out the photo a bit, but I loved the look of it. “Ghost” was taken inside the hotel in a dark corridor. I thought it turned out really well. Thank you Girls! “Sherriff” is another favorite with mine. I thought Shawn was a great model…I hope his wife likes this picture!

Jenny in a Bottle: I created this picture by first taking a picture of my roommate, Jen, and then taking a picture of my water bottle. I matched color of the picture of Jen to the picture of the water bottle. After that I cropped the picture of Jen and placed it over the water bottle. Then I copied the water bottle picture and turned it into an overlay. After that I used a clipping mask to erase the overlay all around the bottle. Then I adjusted levels and such until it looked real (or at least close).

Bottle: 3-1-2010; 6:06pm; Rexburg, ID; f 2.9; 1/6; Nikon Coolpix L1; Self timer and a tripod
Jen: 3-1-2010; 6:04pm; Rexburg, ID; f 2.9; 1/4; Nikon Coolpix L1; Self timer and a tripod





Help Me: I made this by taking a picture of the whiteboard I have in my room and also by taking a picture of myself using a self timer and a tripod. I then shrunk the image of me and put it on top of my whiteboard to make it look like a mini me was writing.

Whiteboard: 3-1-2010; 5:48pm; Rexburg, ID; f 2.9; 1/32; Nikon Coolpix L1

Week 8: Photography Post

I took the “Here Comes the Plane” picture outside the Rexburg airport. Brent and I were spending time taking fun pictures throughout the day and thought it would be fun for Brent to eat a plane. Makes me think of the saying people like to say to get kids to eat, “here comes the plane…” I also created “Pinch of Sunshine” while on this excursion. I liked how it looked like I was holding a ball of light.

Here comes the Plane: 1-28-2010; 3:12pm; Rexburg, ID; f 4.9; 1/790; Nikon Coolpix L1

I took all of these pictures in my apartment down a long dark hallway. The last two I took a few weeks ago, and learned some good lessons to make new pictures like the smiliey face and the egyptian stick man.
