photography

I think the best shot in this assignment was the first one because the background was all white and the focus was on the person sitting in the chair. The persons shadow was also not grey  so it made the picture look better. The second picture was the weakest because it wasn't as clear. It could have been improved if the people were standing closer to the sheet. On Photoshop I edited the levels, hue/saturation, and I used curves. I was able to meet the goal for this assignment by having other people pose behind the sheet so hat i could take pictures. It was easy to edit these pictures because there were so many different ways to make it look good. It was difficult to make sure the quality of the picture was good because the people had to stand close to the sheet in order for the shapes to be clear. If I could do this assignment again I would have the people stand closer to the sheet. I would rate my effort a 9 because I took many pictures and edited them to make them look better.

I think the best shot of this assignment was the sequence because it's clear and in focus. The weakest shot of this assignment was the picture of the seashell because the details on the shell weren't as clear. The weakest image can be improved by taking the photo closer to the seashell. To edit the photos I used Photoshop. I edited the hue/saturation and adjusted the levels. I was able to meet the goals of the assignment by taking more than 30 photos of 3 different textures and editing the 3 best ones. An easy part of this assignment was finding 3 different textures because there are textures everywhere. One part of this assignment that was difficult was making sure the lighting was good because I took 2 of the photos inside the classroom and the light was not very bright. If I were to do this again I would take the pictures outside in more natural bright light. On a scale from 1-10 I would rate my effort a 9 because I took many pictures of different textures to find which ones...

1. The texture in this picture is the rough edges of the pine cone, 2. The texture in the picture is the sequence on a pillow. 3. The texture in the picture is all of the little ridges on the seashell .
