Edge Effects

Week 7: Edits


Rock it: 2-8-2010; 11:18pm; Legacy Ridge, Rexburg; f 5.0; 25 sec; Canon EOS; tripod
I added a colored vignette by using the border tool. Then added font with a colored stroke to make the font look like it has its own colored vignette.

I made a brushed-on effect by using the history tool and then added a color vignette around the outside for a frame effect.

Night and Light

Week 7: Photography





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.

Photomerge

Week 6: Edits

After merging the photos I decided that I wanted to change the color to a sepia color. I also wanted to add a painted effect, so I did this by using a history tool. I also added a fading border.

I took these pictures just outside Beaver Dick Park. I took over 15 photos, but these ones merged the best out of all of the photos that I took. I was trying to wait for a beautiful sunset day, but Idaho was not being accommodating.

Daily Photo Journal

Week 5: Photography

Wednesday: I like the shallow look of this photo of some delicious caramel popcorn I made


Thursday: This morning the weather was really cold and everything was frozen. I liked the shot of this frozen tree in front of the temple.


Friday: My roommate Jaclyn and I were shopping Friday afternoon and I thought this shot would look cool, if she could stop giggling long enough for me to take the picture.


Saturday: This is a picture my boyfriend and I took after an adventurous trip to Idaho Falls. I think my aim with my eyes closed is a pretty good skill.


Sunday: I liked this picture because its a fun picture of our shadows. I like this portrait of us.


Monday: This picture is really so fun. My roommates, boyfriend and his best friend and I were playing around with the light effects pictures Monday night. I thought it was so cool looking. "Who ya gunna call?"


Tuesday: This was my favorite picture of the week because I love the angle and shallowness of this shot. I think it looks beautiful!

Template

Week 5: Edits

I created this template from scratch. I wanted to make it to highlight the best picture of the week along with the best pictures of the day. Obviously I like the flower picture the most. I made the spread fit so that an image can be sized down and placed into the individual rectangles.

Roommates: 2-2-2010; 12:34am; Legacy Ridge, Rexburg; f 2.8; 1/60; Kodak Easyshare ZD7; Handheld

Roommates was taken early morning when my roommate and I were wearing our onesie, footie PJs and had crazy hair. Brent was taken mid-afternoon. I like this shot because I caught a moment when he was doing something that he loves - waxing his snowboard.
