Project 1

For this project we shot two different subjects. For my first subject I shot the sign post down at Pioneer Square. I choose this subjects because it has a very unique and angular shape that I thought offered many possibilities for interesting photographs.













I choose this first picture because I found the lines and the angles more interesting then in the other photographs. In editing I used a high strength Drama Filter and then lightened and warmed the colors, and lowered the saturation.














The second picture I choose because I found the lighting more interesting, and there was less in the background to pull attention then some of the other shots. I started editing this photo by cropping it just a little bit so it was better framed. I then applied three different filters. I applied a Drama filter which made the white lettering pop. Then I applied a Vintage filter which even out the natural blue tone of the original picture and emphasized the lighting in the background. Lastly I turned the photo Black and White and brightened it and increased the contrast.














The last picture I choose because it was such a different perspective then any of the other pictures I took. In editing I turned the picture Black and White to get rid of the blue color of the original picture and then sharpened the whole picture and brightened it just a little bit.

The second set of pictures I took were of a guitar. I picked this object because I found the shapes and designs interesting.















I choose this pictures because I liked the lines. In editing I only made a few changes by cropping the picture, making the picture black and white and sharpening and brightening the photo.
















This second picture I choose because it showed the different shapes of the guitar. In editing I cropped the picture, used a Drama and Vintage filter in order to emphasize the different shapes, and then brightened, sharpened and raised the contrast on the picture.

















This last picture I choose because of the different perspective on the guitar. In editing I cropped the photo adjusted the colors, contrast, and brightness, and finally applied a focus to the center of the picture blurring it around the edges,
