Baby Emmy

Description: This is a picture of Emerson, one of the teacher’s kids my mom babysits during the day. I actually had the camera out to mess with settings and I decided to shoot a couple and got this one of her looking right at me. My mom is holding her and I love how she looks almost like she’s trying to hide yet her eyes are wide open in curiosity. I used the Hue and Saturation tool to brighten her red shirt. I am really happy with how it turned out.

I took this picture while walking home after school. The sun was reflecting off the street sign and that’s what caught my attention. I like how you can see the rays from the sun, and how the trees in the background are really dark.

In this photo I was at a paintball tournament taking pictures of a bunch of my friends. And KT, the guy in this photo was trying to make it to a bunker up the field. So I was taking shots as he went and this one is right as he got behind the bunker. I had to pretty much lie on the ground to get this shot. What I also like about in this picture is the big pile of bunkers in the background that is blurred, while KT is in focus, and the grass is also blurred while the main subject is in focus.

I took this picture on a family road trip earlier this month. There were lots of cool old houses along side the road, so I decided to take a few pictures of them. This one turned out to be my favorite. I cropped it a little, and obviously changed it to black-and-white to give it a vintage effect. To make it more interesting, I intensified the contrast quite a bit. My favorite aspect of the photo is the fact that it looks like an old picture. I used a fast shutter speed to capture the photo quickly, since we were driving and I had to take the picture out my car window

This picture is one of my favorite photos because it captures my silly side a bit. I used this picture for our photo skills project as a center of interest shot. I like how the background is not in focus, and the subject is. It was kind of challenging to get a good shot because my lighting really sucked. This is the first time that I have put an effort into the set up for the final images; usually I just go outside and end up with some really great shots. This time I actually messed with every aspect of what I was shooting so that I ended up with interesting photos. I do like the final outcome, tell me what you think.
