Duck, Duck, Goose

Photo by: Jamie B


I took this picture for my famous photographer assignment. I like how the picture has a side lighting and how you can see the silhouette reflected in the water.

Shadow Of The Day

Photo By: Austin L.


This is a photo from first semester; I selected it because it’s one of my favorite pictures. I threw it into black and white and added fog to the picture, and it gives it that more morning movie feel.

Abandoned

Photo By: Brianna L.


I took this picture for the Famous Photographer assignment. My photographer takes photos that represent abandonment and he’s a night photographer. I took a picture of an abandoned house in Eatonville. I edited it in Photoshop to make it look more eerie, but even without editing I think it turned out well.

A Night of Music


Photo By: Alyssa L.


The Les Miserable’s was our school musical production and I choose to take pictures of their dress rehearsal. It was challenging to work with the lighting, sometimes it would be very bright because of the spot lights and other times it was so dark capturing a picture was difficult. Once I figures out the right settings I simply changed my shutter speed frequently depending on what lighting was happening. This particular picture is one of the musicians in the pit. I changed the picture to black and white because I wanted a very classy look to my photograph. I added some layers and changed the curves slightly to add more light. Over all this was a great experience and I enjoyed the way my pictures came out.

Let’s play piano

Photo by: Jamie B


I took this picture for a 2 second exposure assignment. It’s a candle in a holder on top of my piano. I cropped it a little bit because you could see part of another room in it. I also adjusted the levels and gave it a kind of red tint.

Waterfront

I went to the waterfront one day and got a lot of good pictures but I felt that this one was my best. I really like how the sky and clouds look like a painting and how you can see the cloud shadows in the water. I think that gives the picture a really cool effect. For this picture, I tried to get the whole scene of what I was looking at which was how nice the water and sky was.

Signs of SPRING!

I was on my way to check my mail and I noticed how pretty the trees looked so I took this picture of one. I think it turned out nice.

Foul in the making

Photo by: Tim H.


On February 28th I was taking pictures for my friend’s soccer team. It was a sunny day so I was able to use a 16oo shutter speed. Plus when I was taking these pictures I used a multi-shot camera which takes about 10 pictures quickly if you don’t take your finger off the shooting button. I was pretty proud of this picture because the player wearing the revolution jersey that was in mid-air had his leg caught by the player on the ground. Also I liked this picture because it shows the emotion in the players face. The stillness of the shot which was kind of hard to shoot proved to be very nice.

Hood Canal

Photo by: Shannon Meshke


I was driving around hood canal taking pictures and looking at different landscapes. I chose to take a picture of this lonesome dead tree because I thought that it would give off a really interesting mood. This picture was taken in RAW and was manipulated in photoshop. I thought that in order to make the picture more interesting, converting it to black and white would be cool. I made it so the background was darker and the shadows on the branches were lighter.

Beyond the looking glass

Photo by; Stefanie Patterson


I choose this photo because, I like what the photo has to tell. I had taken several shots like this one, and this one I was most proud of because, everything is clear and in focus. I didn’t do much to it other then crop it and add a black and white adjustment setting to it.
