Favorite Filtered Picture

This picture was my favorite out of the ten that I did. I chose to do water paper and have the fiber length at 3, the brightness at 44, and the contrast at 69. I wanted the lowest fiber length because with the higher ones it made the objects in the picture fade away. The brightness I was scrolling back and forth until I saw a good amount of the darkness with a little brightness. I did the same with the contrast and didn't want it to be too dark and take away from the objects in the picture.

Filtered Pictures

I used poster edge and moved around the edge thickness and the edge intensity and posterization for picture 1.




For picture 2 I used glowing edges and moved around the edge with to a lower number, the edge brightness to a higher number and the smoothness to a lower/middle number.

Pop Art Critique

The pop art that I am looking at is by Pat Kidder and it is of a cat, I like how the cat fur is different colors and sometimes the cat's face is two different colors. The whiskers and the eyes stand out at me and look wicked cool. The eye is reflects different colors. Plus the cat is pretty cute!

Rules of Thirds

Rules of thirds is a guideline that applies to the process of composing visual images.  The image should be divided into nine equal parts/squares, they should be placed along the lines or at the intersections. It creates more tension, energy, and interest by aligning the subject within the picture.

Depth of Field

Depth of field is the distance between the nearest and the furthest objects that give an image judged to be in focus in a camera. There can be a high depth of field and a low/shallow depth of field. In high depth of field the picture is clear and nothing in the back ground is blurred. In shallow depth of field the background blurred and one thing is in focus.
 This is low/shallow depth of field.
This is high depth of field.

Wordle

This is my wordle that I made of the picture from The Scream.

Concentration Pictures

My concentration is of dogs because I love dogs and I'm usually always around them so I figured that I would take pictures of the dogs that I'm around. I took some of my boyfriend and my grandparents dog because they were playing with each other the other day and having fun and in the pictures you can tell that there is a connections between them. Plus the connection with a man and a dog is a strong one.








Pocket Portrait



 
I chose my cell phone, headphones, a pencil, change, and a gift card to walmart, and myself.
I chose my cell phone because  it is usually always with me unless I lose it. I had to borrow Blakey's headphones because I didn't have mine but I wanted them in the picture because I love listening to music and unless I'm in a car then I'm using headphones. I always have a pencil with me because of school unless someone steals them from me. I really like picking up change off the ground and saving it for awhile and then cashing it in. I had my walmart gift card with me even though it is all used up but I go to walmart all the time. At least 3 times a week or more. Then I am in the picture even though I am somewhat hard to see.
