Miscellaneous Filters

 For this picture I used the filters smudge stick, dry brush, and cut out.  I like the look of this picture and I thought that it made the trees look really cool.

 In this picture I used the filters cut out, dry brush, and poster edges.  I really like how the filters made the photo look like it is a drawing.  They give the picture a very artistic feel.

I used the filters smudge stick, dry brush, watercolor, and cut out for this picture.  I thought that the sunset turned out pretty cool with the filters and it looks like something an artist would paint.

Rule of Thirds

I took these two photos and cropped them to demonstrate the rule of thirds. The main subject in both of my pictures are in the cross hairs of the two thirds lines.

Emotion

I chose this picture for emotion because the little boy was exhausted after playing outside.  You can see that he was so tired that he fell asleep while he was eating lunch.  I also used the rule of thirds to make the photograph more interesting.

Silhouette

I thought that this picture looked really unique in a silhouette.  You can see the shape of the squirrel in the branches, but not any detail.  I also used rule of thirds to make the picture more interesting.

Leading Lines

I chose this photograph for leading lines because the lines in the road and the fields lead the viewers' eyes into the picture and draws them in.  The lines lead to the windmills, the main center of interest.

Shadow

I chose this picture for shadow because I thought the shadows looked really cool. I liked how the shadows of the other candles made it look like there were two more candles sitting there.

Shapes

I chose this picture for shapes because when you look at the photo your eye is drawn to the circles of the hay bails.  I really like the picture and how the hay bails are lined up next to each other in a straight line.

Trees

I took this picture at my house during one morning when there was a lot of frost. I thought the frost made the trees look really unique and I also liked how when I edited it the trees turned a pink and green color.

Food

I chose this photo for food because I thought that it looked really cool.  I liked how you can see all of the individual coffee beans. I thought that it was unique and it fits the category because the main subject in the photo is the food.

Removing

I took a photograph of a bunch of little kids swimming and removed a guy sitting on the edge of the pool.

Adding

I took a photo of Mr. Spurr eating a sandwich and then edited him out and put him in front of Mt. Rushmore.
