What was done to each photo:
1) First, I used the selection/move tool to copy and paste various parts of the white rocks to cover a wall that was to the right of the rock path. I also decreased saturation to make it black and white and adjusted the light to make it a bit darker.
2) I added a filter, “polar coordinates” to swirl the photo to represent the cycle of the seasons in Vermont.
3) In this photo, I adjusted the color balance, adding higher levels of blue and lower levels of cyan.
4) First I used the blur tool on some of the darker rock, making them lighter to blend with the water. Then I added the oilfy filter because I really like the soft touch it gives the water.
5) Here I lowered lightness and increased saturation a little bit. Then I selected and painted the boy’s sweatshirt and shoes, dying them green to really pop out.
6) In this photo I again increased saturation, and decreased the hue slightly to enhance the colors, making them clear and precise.
7) Again here, I increased saturation, this time by much more. Then I decreased the lightness and finally added text: “Lyndon State” hovering over the rainbow.
8) Here I first cropped out some extra open water to focus on the lighthouse. Then I sharpened the whole photo (It was originally taken from my camera in black and white).
9) This photo was already very purple and florescent but I did adjust the midtones of magenta to enhance the color even more. I also used the blur tool in the background on the mountains.
10) In this photo I added the filter “lens flare” from the top left of the photo where the sun hits the spaces between the two bridges.
11) Here I increased the saturation, contrast, and lightness slightly and decreased the brightness just a little bit.
12) In this photo I adjusted the hue to enhance the green colors of the trees. Then I increased the saturation significantly and added the text, “802” to wrap up my slideshow!
I wanted to show the changes VT goes through during each year and how each season is set aside from the others. I tried to keep a variety of photos and manipulations but also allow each slide to show its natural beauty as it unfolds in VT.
ReplyDeletevery nicely done. I really like how you manipulated your second photo. The swirling idea to show the cycles of the seasons was an awesome idea. You kept your manipulations to a minimum allowing your viewers to capture the true beauty of vermont.
ReplyDeleteLovely photos, Jessica. I had to view it a few times to read the small text (old eyes?) so maybe making the text all the larger size would be helpful. I also felt it ended abruptly. I was kind of looking for a concluding statement/photo. Your photos are excellent and the manipulations just made them better it seems. Very nice work.
ReplyDeleteWow, I loved your photos! You really captured Vermont's beauty very nicely! I really liked how you manipulated some of the photos as well. It was hard to notice that you even changed some, so good for you! I agree, the writing was a bit small, and the slides moved quickly. I found myself having to view it a few times to be able to read all of the information.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful!
I love your slideshow. I thought you did an amazing job with your photos and the manipulations. The one that caught my eye the most was the waterfall with the grenn jacket. That stood out and was an amazing photo to me. I love how you chose to do different things with all of your photos.
