Project 2

Five Rules:

1. Photo must be taken outside.
2. I must use "Auto Color" during the editing process.
3. My finger/thumb must appear in the peripheral of every photo.
4. Photos must be taken between 11am and 2:30pm.
5. My hair must be down by my face in every photo (potential to blow in front of my eyes).
6. Pictures will be of whatever subject I choose at that moment.

Wet Scan Negatives

These aren't all my favorites, but are some of them. The last one is one of the ones I used in my final project portfolio for this class. I definitely enjoyed scanning these and editing them in photoshop, rather than just printing with traditional development. I'm much better at photoshop!

Reading Response for Creative Suite 5/6 Info

Facts I've learned!

• Spot healing doesn't require an actual reference point. It's like magic!
• TIFF and PSD files both preserve layers, but PSD files are more efficient.
• If I want to print an image, it is better to use CMYK.
• You can rotate your cropping border; and you can crop using the marquee tool (Image>Crop)
• When resizing an image, uncheck the "Resample Image" box; Bicubic smoother for enlarging, Bicubic sharper for shrinking.
