Panoramic




ORIGINAL
Semi Trucks,1/25/12, 3:15 Pm, Rexburg Idaho, F/5.0,SS1/800 sec, Canon Rebel T3

I had a lot of fun shooting this panoramic picture. I tool it of semi trucks that are near the nature park. I took all the pictures without a tripod. I took 8 pictures and then blended them together on Photoshop.For the edits I played around with the layers as well as saturation. I also did content aware fill to remove the telephone in the right hand side. I also ended up cropping a bit off each edge to give it a cleaner look.

Cupcakes 1/25/12,7:37pm, Rexburg Idaho, SS 1/50, F/4.5, Canon Rebel
This picture was really fun to take an edit. I took it in my kitchen when I cooked cupcakes, then I brought it into camera raw and played with the color settings as well as the vibrancy and the exposure. I liked how it make the picture look as if it was taken a long time ago, with a vintage look. I also took the orange tones out when I played with the saturation, I think it turned out exactly as I envisioned it in my head!

Milk n' cookies, 1/28/12,1:29pm, Rexburg Idaho, F/4.6, SS1/30,Canon EOS T3


This picture was an awesome example to edit in camera raw. I took it today when my fiancee was eating Oreos and milk, I thought it was a strange way to eat the cookies so I took a picture of it. When editing it I did a few different things, first I played around with the saturation and took the yellow out of the shot. I also played around with the sharpness. Finally when I brought it into Photoshop and edited out a couple crumbs in the milk.

Edit Post 3

Bottle Engagement 1/21/12, 4:07 Dubois, Idaho F/9.0, SS 1/200 Sec,



For this picture I did a couple things to edit it. First I made a layer mask and bumped up the saturation and I sharpened the image. Then I masked out the snow so it looked a little less blue after the saturation was upped from the first edit.

Tracks; 1-15-12; 3:45Pm, Hayden Idaho, f/5.6, 1/1000Sec, Rebel T3

  This first picture I blended together a picture of an El Camino and a picture of tire tracks in the snow. I used layer masks and made it less opaque where the top or the car was so it could stand out. I also edited the pictures so the colors were a bit brighter and so the images were sharper.

For the editing of this one I Did the first tutorial, But I did a mask and layer edit and then erased opacity on the text. I also used saturation edits to bring out different colors in the bulbs, and sharpened the image.

For This assignment I picked the color Brown. I picked this color because I went home to Coeur d' Alene for the weekend and my house is "rustic" so I found a lot of brown or coppery tones. For the first Picture I took a picture of the lanterns that are next to each doorway in the hall. I liked how the light looked reflecting off the wall. The second photo was of tart tins that my mom was using. I liked how in the light they looked coppery. This photo was edited a little, sharpness was turned up as well as the layers were changed a bit. The third picture was of an El Camino outside on our property. It was rusting and I liked the brown color against the old blue of the interior. The fourth picture is of a bronze statue I found of an Indian sitting on a horse. I liked the bronze color and how the slate in the background blurred. My final picture was of some plants on campus. The brown is in the dead weeds, I liked the sun flare and how it looked coming across the plants.

Edit post:Cut outs

 My brother and I went to the color festival a couple years ago. When looking over the photos I wanted to make the colors pop more. the way I decided to do this is with cutouts. The first thing I did was cut out the entire background so the color would pop. The second shot I cut out half the background so its a cut our that makes the heads pop out of the picture.
