Alphabet art

C-H-O-K-E

For this assignment I had to take photos of objects that look like letter. The resulting letters will spell out the word of my choice, which was “choke”. Most of the best shots I had were objects inside the school. The reason for that is there are not a number of items in my house that looked like the required letters. I had to make the letter “k” using three knifes from my kitchen because I couldn’t find an object that resembled that letter. Using macro media, I edited the photos to the black & white shade liking. I like the way my art came out.

“Why shoot in black & white"

Why do people show an interest in black & white photography? Photos and images have been in black and white since the old times so why are people going back to the old method? Some people think that when color is removed from an image, it adds something more to a photo. Black & white photos can add depth and emotion to an image. Some people think that color actually takes attention away from the subject in the image because we as a sociality are obsessed with color instead of the subject.

In my opinion, I like black and white photography. The fact that an image is shot in black and white, makes the image look bold. It does add emotion to the photo and makes it look more interesting. Color is starting to seem boring to me because it’s over used in today society. I would love to see more black and white images make a comeback.

Food Photos


  

In all of my photos I did not use natural lighting. I choose to use artificial lighting and I am happy with the results. I constantly change the position of the camera, the lights and the food to make sure I got the best results out of many photos that were taken. To make the food look more pleasing, I used simple tricks such as rubbing oil on an able so the water droplets won’t run off the apple. I also made good use of editing tools such as the stamp tool to remove any spots on plates and using the burn tool to darken the crust of an apple pie.  

Dyptich with interaction



For this set I want to include my cat. I an feed my cat her favorite treat and other pictures shows me gripping my wrist in pain because she stock her claws into my skin. The funny thing is I wasn’t posing, she ready did injure me and I was in pain. This is a real pain face.



In this set I had my mom throwing playing cards in the air like she is having fun and then she has to deal with the consequences of picking the cards off her shirt and out of her hair.



In this set I had my mom use my camera to pose as if she is taking a photo and then she is posing.

Selective Coloring

For this assignment I took my picture of a wine bottle and duplicated the layer in the Fireworks program. Them with one layer in black and white, I erases the wine label so the colored layer will show up. I think my work is okay.
