Abi G: COLOR EMPHASIS



The use of masking was very important for this project. I tried to experiment using different techniques like fading the sharpies into the background. I also adjusted the contrast for the background so I would have an array of grays in addition to dark black and pure white. Choosing what subject to emphasize had a powerful effect on the composition overall.

Color emphasis




for this project you had to make the whole picture black and white by desaturating the top layer. Then you had to choose which parts of the picture you wanted to make colorful. I changed the contrast on my photos so that they would be brighter colors. Once i did that i then went back to the first layer and used the brush tool to put in the color. The pictures that i used all use the rule of thirds.




For this blog I uploaded my four double negative photos. This is when you combine two pictures by adjusting the opacity of the top layer photo. For my picture with the flower I also used a pic of my curtain to give the flowers a different texture. And for may of them I had to use the brush tool to fade the photos into eachother. Lastly, for this project I desaturated at least one picture (layer) to bring out the other.

Olivia's Double Negatives




Most of my pictures have a similar composition because I used the same picture a few times. I used the city of Barcelona or Rome in four of my double negative photos. To create balance within each photo I took another picture and put it in the sky. The picture with the two cities is reflected to create symmetry. I changed the opacity of the pictures to have each picture blend with the sky. One picture shows contrast between the lights in the sky and the dark city.
