Project 3 Grids and color

 I really like how they used color here, it makes the green leaf pop. All the dark saturated
reds caving in on the lonely green leaf in the center. The picture is kind of sad in a way
because the leaf doesn't fit in. By strengthening the red and making the leaf softer green it makes the green leaf pop more.

Mood

This one is the picture I chose for mood I like the way the light bleeds through the dark trees. I darkened the trees and made the ground feel a little more worm to emphasize the mood of the ground and sun.The ground provides a really nice morning mood. It makes it look like a cold morning with the only warmth coming from that beam of light.

Color Harmony

 This one is my favorite color harmony.  I like the flowers surrounding the swimmer it makes it look like there swimming in flower. This one is interesting because at first it looks like there is cold and warmth but I put a warm filter over all of it. This made the pools in the center really warm and blend in nicely with the yellow flowers.

Monochrome

This one is one of my favorites because its simple but interesting. I decided to split the image into 7 different pieces and bring a little more intensity to the blue. The swimmers were already stretched out so I stretched them out even more which had a cool effect. Splitting them apart gave the picture a lot more intensity and the exaggeration I wanted it to have.

Color compliments

Color compliment

 I have a lot of color compliments I this one was the hardest for me because I wanted to make a cool grid for this one but I never came out the way I wanted it. These 3 came out the best and I think are good. This first color compliment is cool because it a lines up which was really hard to get it to do. Also it made a really cool checker pattern. The next one is of my baby cousins feet under water in different shades of green with a roses in the center because that color pops and he really likes roses. 

Color harmony

This one I finally decided it was warm harmony. The picture has all natural things on it with a cool border on the right of the picture. Starting with a field of yellow flower to a circle of red roses to the nice blue sky with a warm pre set over all over it worked really well. Getting a view of a lot in one flat grid.

 I chose this picture for many reason, I like how the bird is just about to launch forward. The intensity in its stance is cool.  I also like the yellow moss it gives the whole picture a different and unique look. I took this picture on my old camera so the quality isn't the best but it still came out good. Editing wise I brought the brightness and saturation up because the picture was laking color intensity.

 I  like the character this birds face has. It stands tall and prideful. This one also came out in good quality for my old point and shoot. I like the bent bar its standing on. Editing wise brought up the contrast, saturation, and brightness.

 I liked this one because I got the bird from the back. It shows a new perspective and side of the bird. I like that you can see a lot of details of the bird. Editing wise I fixed the contrast, brought up the saturation a little bit.

I like this picture because the dragonflies blue color was a little different. I like the color of the rock its on with the green shallow depth of field. I brought the saturation and warmth up I copped the picture so the dragonfly isn.t perfectly centered.

I like this one because it's further away, the sun reflection of the rock is has a neat color and tone to it. on this one I brought the brightness and warmth.

I spent a long time taking pictures of this dragonfly. It wasn't moving for a while. I like how it rested on the stick with the wood background. I  added saturation and brightness.

My Summer

   

   


       This summer I went on lots of cool trips. I went to Out and about there big tree houses. After there we went to Ashland, Or and saw some plays and hung around the town. We have been doing this for the last 10 years. I also went to a spa in Mexico called Rancho la Puerta. I had a good time there eating all there fresh food from the garden. I enjoyed all the hikes and hot tubs too. Most of all running around Portland with my friends
