The Skate Park

Photo by: Mason G.


Description: This was one of my final prints for my travel Washington assignment. My town was Orting and I tried to get multiple attractions, one being the skate park they have. I adjusted the colors and contrast, along with levels to brighten it up and sharpen it more. While I got other interesting pictures, I believe these from the skate park turned out the best. I really like how I was able to capture his movement of the skateboard in order to land the trick, which he did.

Daffodil light up

By: Jenny B.


I took this picture when I was trying to mimic a famous photographer. I shined a bright light on it from the side and then the rest of the room was completely dark. I light how it looks like the flower is just lighting up. I got in real close so the details of the daffodil. I think the shot turned out really nice.

Recently, I’ve become fond of black and white photography. I was taking pictures by hood canal and found this interesting dead tree. This is a Brian Kosoff inspired picture. In Photoshop I transferred it to black and white.

Blooming Blossoms

I took this picture for our famous photographer assignment. With this picture I had to get up close to the flower. It was hard to get the camera to focus but I think that this picture is in great focus. I really like how the colors turned out and that they are so bright. All in all I think that this is a good picture.

The goal of this assignment was to emulate a famous photographer, mine being Michael Levin, and create a presentation comparing my attempts and the actual thing. I enjoyed this assignment a lot because it really pushed me to try new things in Photoshop. This picture required much editing, as before it was a colored picture of a restraint and hotel concrete supports, literally numbering the hundreds. I drastically cut down on the visual clutter, did a lot of playing with various filters, layers, exposures, lightings, etc. and basically created the water underneath; nothing in this picture is really real aside from the supports. However I think I got the look down and like it immensely.

I took this picture a while back but I really like, I like the way the flames look. It turned out better than I expected and the focus was pretty good. I think it’s a pretty descent picture.

Tacoma

I took this picture on a day trip to Tacoma with my brother. The picture was taken for my Traveling Washington project. This was my favorite picture out of the bunch. It wasn’t to light and it looked cool.

`Oh man it’s just so pretty I just want to stare at it for hours and hours on end. It’s kinda shiny too.

(Instructor note: Way to expand on your commentary, again...).

Yaaaay, black n’ white

There were some flowers on the ground and the way they were angled looked kind of cool so I took pictures of them. I also thought this would look better in black and white so I did that and they actually looked better!

This is a picture of my puppy named Muffassa. He has one eye and I love the lighting on him. I like how its blurred around him.
