Response to Article Paragraph

I think that I did have really fake skin on my person and it did look pretty bad if you look at at from this perspective. It made the eyes look perfect and I should’ve thought about the rule to never over edit the picture only little details like blemishes. But over all I agree with the whole Article completely It was so right about everything. And in the little notes on the side made it explained even more and it helped me understand. I think that this article was also a little funny and that helped me to read it! hehe!

Before

After

What I learned!

Once again I learned even more how to use pixel mator in editing ways! I mean as in I learned how to use the lasso tool and how to effect what you select, as in taking it away and even selecting more at once. I also learned how to make a mask to make part of the image have a different image on it that was underneath it. (and I learned that a mask existed!) I also learned how to use the stamp tool and how to copy part of the image and put it somewhere else. The last thing that I learned was how to sharpen only part of the image with the sharpen tool. That’s what I used on making the eyes. This is what I learned in the pixel mator tutorial.

This image was to show that this family is spunky, funky, fun, and just plain weird. We all are those things in this house. This picture was also supposed to be really see the beauty of someone, their eyes, their personality, etc. Also to have the closest part of the depth of field to be bright and behind be dark and black.

This family picture was to show our families togetherness and that we all love and care for each other. And that we stick together through thick and thin, good and bad times, hard and easy, everything. Plus to show that we are happy were content, life in this house is good. Lastly to show that we LOVE LOVE!

My vision for the image was to have some sadness in it because right now there are some sad things. Also in my life to and things aren’t the best that they could be. So the whole purpose was to bring that out for me and Grace that someday things will be better. That is why in the image she’s looking away.

The purpose for this image was to say that in this house we are adventurous and fun. I thought Ben would be good because he is most like that. This was also meant to be dramatic and I hope it is. This image is to show depth to our Boldness and feeling.

1 Paragraph about what I learned editing my pictures!

So I learned how to Sharpen and use exposure on pictures and I found out that I really like those features. They bring out the depth in the photograph. I think that I am now more experienced with pixel mator, because before now I didn’t really know how to really use it. Now when I take pictures maybe on the RoadTrip or whenever I know that I can now what I’m doing and make the picture better and see what I want the picture to be about. I would possibly like to do something like this assignment again.

Article Number One!

I think that this little lesson was very interesting. The settings and modes said on the site were modes and Setting that I've never even heard of. Except Shutter speed, Aperture, and F numbers.I think that this will really help me in the future I think that sometime I might just have to look back at this website, so I don’t forget the tips.

Getting closer. This part really helped me because I usually just like to get everything in the picture and not really focus on anything. So this tip especially will be used by me in the future. I think that it was good for this person to put this on the post because usually people don’t think of that. One that thing that is really good about this tip is that it really captures the beauty of the thing that you are photographing.

The Shutter speed tip is something that I truly agree about with the poster. The reason why is because I know about shutter speed and aperture, and to have it at a low F number is awesome, and very useful when you are trying to take pictures of moving objects. I’m really interested in taking pictures of moving this and having the blur, or the streak of light. I think that that kid of stuff is just beautiful. Plus in pictures it really catches my eye.

Article Number Two!

I think that what he mentioned about Balance is right and that the image is really interesting and fits together, its balanced. Tip number three is Cool and totally true, I love how he says that sometimes the picture looks totally better with the background blurred. Or that there is less stuff in the background. It really just fits with close up images, or flowers or people in a crowd. I really like picture that have less stuff in the background it really makes stuff stand out.

With dynamics It makes the line that you eye tends to follow, and I really like that for me it makes the image interesting. And it also brings out the thing that you want to stand out in the image. In the article it says that diagonal lines are the usual dynamic lines and I agree it kind of leads up to what the picture is about. And what I like to do to make it look even better is Lower the F number so that everything is blurred except the main thing in the picture.

I honestly don’t like to WORK THE SUBJECT! The reason why is because I like to take pictures of lots of things not just one thing. But then I choose a couple pictures of the images I took out of the ones that look best. But the thing is is that I know that I should because then I can get a better picture with the background that I like. I think this article just like the last will help me a lot! Just like the last website I think that Will end up visiting it again.
