Sunset Memories
My picture is titled "Sunset Memories". My image doesn't really have a message to give out, in my opinion my image gives you more of a peaceful feeling rather than a message. Some of the layers that I used were: a sunset, a playground, a selfie, and some trees. The first picture that I put in my portrait was the selfie. While taking my selfie I tried to have good natural lighting, and made sure that my expression would fit the theme of my overall picture. The second picture that I took was the sunset. This picture was taken at a lake. I took the picture since I liked the way the sunlight reflected in the water while the sun was setting; and I also liked the color of the sky and the contrast with the trees in the back. To make the picture fit I had to enlarge it, and I also changed the opacity of it so that it would look faded and not cover the selfie. The third layer is the trees. I took this picture because I liked the way the trees went along with the rest of my image. And how it matched the theme of day time, and the sun. I only changed the opacity of this picture and I also placed it behind the selfie instead of placing it in front of the selfie. The third and final image is a picture of the playground. I initially took this picture since it gave some really nice memories of when I was little and I liked to play in the play ground. I also liked the contrast of bright colors along with the sky, and some of the trees in the back. This image was also stretched to fit the size of the selfie and was put in front of the selfie with a change in the opacity. So the title of my image is Sunset memories since the emphasis of my image is the sunset. Also some of the images brought back some really sweet memories of when I was a little kid. Also I don't believe that my picture conveys a message I feel like overall my image gives you a peaceful feeling rather than saying a certain message. |
Sun Shinning
In my opinion my double exposure is way different from my selfie. The reason why my double exposure might look better than my selfie is because I have learned how to utilize many different tools in photoshop. These tools help me edit the image and make it look as good as possible. Also my image might be different, since in the selfie I used five different pictures to put over my selfie, and in the double exposure I only used one image. The last thing that is different is that in my selfie I do not have a plain background. Instead you can see the backgrounds of all the five images, but in my double exposure I have a plain background, and some of the picture goes into the background. Which I thought looked really nice. |
