Photogram

For my photogram i used a flower petal and some lace. I put it in the developer but exposed afterwords instead of putting it right into the fix. This was to make it slightly pinkish, which i think makes it look more antique.

Portrait: Emily

For this picture, i blurred out the background to make the subject pop out more. I really liked the lighting for this photo. I used an ISO of 400 and an exposure of -1/3. I also used a white balance for florescent lighting, which gave her skin a healthy glow, but also added some shadow to her face. 

Portrait: Korey

For this portrait picture, i used an ISO of 400, which reduced some of the digital noise. I like how the viewer can only see half his face, and part of it is covered in shadow. For this picture i used a +1/3 exposure and a tungsten white balance.

Portrait: Emily, again.

For this portrait picture, i used a picture of my sister. I used photo shop to make her eyes pop a little and to blur out the background and make her the main focus.  Again, i used an ISO of 800 which created some digital noise. 

Portrait: Evan

For a portrait picture, i used my friend Evan. I like how his shadow falls across only half his face, while the other is bright. I changed the color setting on this photo in iPhoto and changed up the contrast. I used a -1/3 exposure and had to use an ISO of 800, which added a lot of digital noise.

Landscape: Road

For this landscape photo, I used a -1 exposure, an ISO of 400, and a custom white balance, off the snow. The original picture had a big black blob of tar, which i took out in photoshop because i didn't want it as the focal point. Instead, i have a yellow sign as the focal point. It helps to lead the viewers eye down the road, which continues into the background.

Downtown

For my landscape picture, i used a city scape of downtown Oconomowoc. I blurred out the main focal point, the person, to show movement and to emphasize the clear background. Although this picture is orangey, I like the resulting color. I also like the shin of the lights in the background.
