Autumn Warmth


Photo by: Amber V
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.

Late skies

Photo By: Alexis W
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.

Hidden Clarity

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

Photo by: Leasa T.
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!

Moonlight

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.

Some Flower

Photo by: Lauren H.
I took this picture for our ‘Close-Ups’ assignment. It stood out to me because the colors are so bright and vibrant around a dark circle. It caught my eye more than the others did. It took a few shots because it was hard to get up close but it finally focused.

Seattle’s Best

Photo by: Amber V


This picture I look just for fun. I was in Bellevue at a public park, just gotten my Starbucks and it was a really sunny day. I like that the sun is shining in the corner of the picture and that the whole cup is in focus. I like that not the whole Starbucks logo is in the picture. To me it makes the picture looks more creative with my name in the center focus, it personalizes the picture instead of just a coffee cup. My ISO setting was set at a medium low setting because of the glare of the sun and I was shooting in Priority mode with a white balance of cloudy. There isn’t really anything that I dislike about this picture.
