I liked this assignment. It was very cool. For the first picture there wasn't any edits done. I just inserted it into my template and used a clipping mask to insert it in. For the second picture I did a little levels, contrast, boosted the vibrance and clarity. I shortened my rectangles because I wanted to see what it looked like and I thought it turned out nice.

Photolusion Straight


I guess I was in cloud mood when I took these picture.

For my Photolusion Edited shot I wanted the clouds to look like they were spelling a word. I chose the word LOVE because I had a sign that said that but.... yeah. I cut out the word love and then drug it over to my cloud picture. I used the clone stamp to erase the part of the cloud where I wanted love to read.

For my Photolusion Straight shot, I thought that this wispy cloud kind of looked like mist. So I wanted the cloud to look like mist coming out of my perfume bottle. It wasn't a perfect cloud but I thought it turned out ok. I didn't do any edits to this picture besides a little levels.

The picture of the cellar is unedited, I just decided to do an edge effect to it.

I took my sister-in-laws family pictures and I thought it would fun to do a couple of edge effects to these picture. Because the background of the pictures were white, I put black in the background.

The light painting were really fun to do. I went and bought some glow sticks (bracelets), which gave them that circular feel. The first one I just threw them in the air and let them fall down and the second one I was actually holding them and swirling them around.

For the first outside picture, I did a 30 second exposure and just thought the last of the sunset was hitting the front of this cellar really neat. The second one I turned on my car lights for about half of the exposure which gave it that glow.

I didn't have time finish my custom template so I used one of Sister Esplin's for now. I really like how this one is laid out but I'm going to make sure that my horizontal pictures are long enough to show the detail of my images.

This was a challenging assignment because while some days were easy to find something cool to shoot, others were a challenge. I didn't mean to do two flower pictures but I thought both of them turned out well and I just love all of the blossoms on the trees.
For the first shot I did a vintage type effect to give it that coloring effect. For the car picture I bootsted the colors, contrast, etc to give it more vibrance.
The blossom picture, I just added some sats, levels. For the flag picture I used the exposure tool in camera raw to make the glowing effect around the edges of the flag. For the windmill I just used a small f stop to get that kind of silhouette look but you can still see details on the windmill. I really loved the old tractor but I didn't want to do a lot of editing so I just did levels and boosted the sats. For the picture of my husband I only did levels and then just touched up his skin a little.
