Description: This photo I took for the close up assignment. I like how the lighting turned out. The sun was super bright, so it took a few shots to get just the right angle and lighting. I didn’t do much editing, besides cropping and changing the contrast a bit. Overall, I’m happy with the way it turned out.

I took this picture for my autumn project. This picture was one of my last photos. It was a little wet outside from the rain from the previous day. That’s why the outside edges are kind of wet looking. I wanted a different perspective so I got super close to the leave ( on the ground). I wanted that blur effect to make the picture different. I didn’t realize that it would be that blurry but I liked the outcome of it. I left only a little part of the leave in focus so that the detail on the leave is what would ketch your eye.

This photo was taken on a ferry headed to Vashon Island. The lovely young lady in the photo is my dear friend, Kaitlyn Humphrey. I expect most of everyone to know of her because she is a social butterfly and a most rambunctious young lady. This photo intrigues me because the lighting was not what I had originally hoped for. These were first of many that I took during that time on the ferry and the best. After initially evaluating the lighting I had decided it wasn’t bright enough. So I lightened my camera settings. The other photos had ‘proper lighting’ but were not at all interesting. The lighting gives the photo texture, interest, and the horizon breaks up any distractions and draws the eye to the subject. This photo is simple. I like simple.

I look this picture for my autumn assignment. I am really happy on how this picture turned out. It took me a few times to get the focus just how I wanted it. I really like the colors contrast within the leave it’s self. I used a cloudy white balance for this picture and a 1250 ISO setting. To me the leave shows exactly what autumn is all about, changing colors. The only thing I do not like about this picture is that the yellow is the leaves is very bright on the eye.

While my mother, sister, sisters boyfriend and I went to the museum of Glass and History museum in Tacoma I was taking random shots of many objects.As many people know the old buildings in Tacoma and Seattle are brick well when they were first building in the areas and using brick my great grandfather or two were apart of laying bricks for the buildings.My mother told me the above building might have been built by  my family members which is pretty  neat.Anyways since it was still early I used about a 1000 ISO rating and then in Photoshop I turned it black and white because I felt as if it fit the building.

I took this photo for autumn theme project. I had taken many pictures for this project such as leaves and trees, but I felt I needed something new. So I waited for the sun to start going down and as it began to go down the sky looked like a pinkish orange color, which I thought looked really pretty, and it was perfectly behind the mountain and I thought it would be a perfect picture and it actually turned out to be a really cool picture.

Just a simple random shot. I was walking along a sidewalk when I realized, the bead would look neat set across the wet grass. So, natural lighting, super close up. It was tricky making something stand out in the picture, because there was so much green, so much blending. But I think it turned out okay in the end. Took out the green tint in photoshop and warmed it slightly.

Into the dark

It was night time and the leaf caught in the light captured my eye. I thought it would be perfect for my autumn assignment. The light was a bit too high for me so I had to try to work with the angle I was given, it was a bit hard. And I had to put the camera settings on a high shutter speed because I couldn’t hold it steady enough for it to be on a low shutter speed, even though the photo ended up a tad blurred still.

Mmm mmm mmm.. This was for the autumn assignment, my mom had made apple pie, it looked and smelt really good so I wanted to capture it on camera before it was all eaten; it was delicious!

I liked how this night photo turned out. I don’t have a tripod, and holding the camera still while having a longer shutter speed was difficult, so most of the pictures I took of the ended up looking pretty bad. It isn’t the best I could do, but I enjoyed taking this picture.
