Katie_Turntable


I took this photo in my living room. I liked this photo because the colors are very sharp and the focus on the record player is decent. I would change, however, the glare on the corner of the turntable and the very edges of the record player being cut off. Also this was my first time using editing on the photo, because this photo wasn't very good at first but every other photo I took was worse.

Winter_Julianna

I took this photo in my back yard after the snow storm we had. I like how I captured all the snow and little details in it. I also like the clouds in the background because I think they add a nice touch because they are big and puffy like the snow on the ground. I also like the different layers in the photo. You have the tree in the right corner then you have the trees in the center and you also have the trees way into the forest. I think the different layers add more to the photo because if I had only take an picture with a couple tree I don't think it would have looked as nice.

Han Qin- Action Figure

I took this photo from my home, this is a 12-inches figure, I do like the focus of the light on his chest, but the eyes are too bright that maks his face not clearly, and the color of the backgroud is kind same as the yellow on his body, if the background is balck will be better.

Baxter_Holy Lamb

I really love how bright this photo is, in addition to the great focus on the baby lamb and the tilted angle of the photo. Although it is obvious that these figures are simply part of a nativity set, I believe I was fairly creative in the positioning of them. I put the baby lamb in front to symbolize baby Jesus, often referred to as the Lamb of God.

Baxter_Abstraction

While in the art room, I decided to take some close up shots of what a horrible job people do of cleaning their palate. I like the diagonal direction of the photo, but I wish there was more blues and purples in it. The yellow paint stands out a lot, and almost disguises the identity of the subject matter.

Frozen_Flavia



We were driving in Sherborn where I saw these beautiful icicles on the side of the road in the woods. I like this photo because of how the icicles formed nicely and it looks like a waterfall. The lighting in this photo is good; it was a cloudy day. Another thing I like is the detail in the ice itself. I was bored so I started playing around with the settings of the photo. So I decided to make the photo more dramatic and make it cooler. By making it cooler it made the icicles become "colder"/ more blue.

Katie_Snow


I took this photo outside at night. I liked it because the texture in the hand in the snow is very interesting. I also like the shallow depth of field in the photo. My only complaints would be the front of the snow is not in focus and there are some harsh shadows.
