Rock Star

This photo was for an assignment themed towards circles. I have collected hundreds of energy drink cans and decided to set few up for a shoot. At first there was a huge lack of light but after some adjustments I think it turned out alright.

Gargoyle

I took this photo while looking for stuff to photograph outside for my Circles theme project. I really liked how the depth of field turned out, with the gargoyle and some of the dirt in focus, and the plant in the background out of focus. The bright colors of the photo turned out well too. One thing that I would have changed was the composition of the image; now that I look at it more closely, I would have liked to have more of the plant in the picture.

On my day off from working at the Puyallup Fair I went to the fair with some friends.Everybody who goes to the Puyallup Fair knows that there is a mother pig every year that has a new batch of young piggies.Out of all the young pigs there was this loner in the looks department.I took this photo from the opposite side of them from atop.I got in as close as I could and made sure that I got in some of it’s same pink siblings.I took the photo with a Nikon D70s.

Sunlit Spider

For this picture I had to get up close and personal with this spider, which freaked me out a bit, but it was worth it. I was really happy with how this picture turned out, and how the sun seemed to light up the spider. I was working from a lot of different angles trying to get it just right. I had to get at angle where the sun was not in the picture, but still lit up the picture. I really like how the spider almost looks transparent. It was hard to get this picture because my camera would not focus on the spider, it would focus on the things behind it.

Spring Flowers

For this picture I was in Mt. Vernon with my parents and we were at the tulip farms. Our assignment was Spring Theme and I figured Tulips were the perfect way to capture spring. I put the pink of the flowers at the top of the frame to make it seem like that was the skyline and that the green stems and grass around them was the landscape. I used aperture in all of the pictures I took for the assignment and in this one I decided to have the main flower clear, in focus and in the left side of the frame so that, going from left to right, the flowers became more blurry. This picture came out the way that I had planned and I was very happy with it!

One Ring, One Clean Counter

I took this photo for my “Circles” assignment. I was truly surprised that I got this on the first try, since all the other ones I took were blurry and took at least 2 or 3 tries. The reflection was planned, and it happens to be my favorite part. I took this with the dim light in the corner of my bathroom. And I admit, I did shine the counter first.

Bleeding Hearts

This is a picture I took for our “Spring” theme assignment in Photo 1. I really liked how this photo turned out. I used the macro setting to get a clear focus on the flowers, and to make the background out of focus. The lighting outside wasn’t great so I had to change the levels using Photoshop.

Dedication

This photo was pretty hard to get. I had to sit on the ground and hold my camera really low. Positioning the camera in just the right spot so I could get her face as it came out of the water was the toughest part. I had to open up the aperture as much as possible and use a fast shutter speed. It took me about 20 minutes to get this one shot.

This was a picture I took for our “Circles” theme assignment. I used red, yellow, and orange skittles and arranged them on my desk. I also used my desk lamp for more light. My camera was set to macro, making sure to focus in on the single red skittle more than the rest. I edited the colors and brightness in photoshop. There was also a big white glare blocking off part of the “S” on the red skittle so I used the stamp tool to fix it.
