Final

Since February I've learned some new editing skills and how to think about photos before I take them. My best projects are probably the infared, because they look nice, or the self portraits, because I really thought them through. My favorite types of photos are the serious surrealism, because they are fun to make and make the biggest impact on people. I learned that even though I'm cheerful and love cheery things I have a dark side that wants out. My challenges this semester was finding the time to take the photos.

Self portraits

I tried to do something a little more colorful here. It's like holding onto an idle.

It shows distress and poorness(the over sized coat). Tried to make this one more emotional.

Freedom and purity is shown by the wings on the back(like angel wings). But the black color of them shows a darker side. Nothing is pure.

Clones

Ooops. I cloned Chris again.

Infared

Levitate

Silhouettes Black and White

Question 2

Which describes an event better, a picture or words?

A picture does better because it shows you exactly what's happening, when words can leave out key details. It also puts you more in the place and helps you connect with it. If you're told about a tragic event you will think it horrible, but that's about it. When given a photo you truly see how bad it is.

Pixelate

Pixelated my face in photoshop. All but my eyes and mouth.

Thatcher Effect

This looks really funny. Flip it upside-down.

Question #1

What is Art

Art, in my opinion, is a way to express yourself or your feelings. You create something to show how you feel or who you are. It can be a simple picture to a written story. A way to be creative and create something you want.

Make the ordinary seem extraordinary.

This is my photo blog. I'll be posting photos soon. See you then. :)
