Project 3- Color

Corey Arnold’s

This  photo is split in half horizontally between two very different moods. The main focus is the bear and all of the colors in the background blur together. The photo has a lot of cool colors as well as a yellow tint. The colors give the photo a sad/lonely feeling. The photographer achieved this by capturing the bears light brown fur partially covered in dark brown almost black mud or pollution. The bear itself is alone and the facial expression of the bear also supports the mood. The yellow tint  of the top half of the photo gives the photo a more hopeful/warm feeling.

Project 2- Framing and Composition

For this project I explored eight different photo techniques. I tried to use a variety of different subjects for each technique. Each photo was edited in Lightroom to enhance the color and overall quality.

Bird's Eye View

I took this when I went to Victoria, Canada for the weekend. When editing this photo I brought out the blue sky while giving the rest of the photo a yellow tint.

Filling the Frame

For this photo I brought out the colors green and yellow which created a contrast to the black shadows. 

Close Up

When editing this photo I tried to make this certain part of the plant be the center focus.

Bug's Eye View

Rule of Thirds

For this photo I brought out the colors in the sunset. I liked how the different shades of blue brought out the different layers in the mountains.

Frame Within a Frame

I took this photo through a tape roll. To make the photo more appealing to the eye I cropped it . I also made the edges more defined by making it black and white.  

Leading Lines

I was happy with how this photo came out. The lighting was horrible and it took a lot of editing. The viewers eye goes directly to the spider in the middle of the web.
