Color Set

For this project I struggled a lot looking for the color set that I had. I also struggled with the photos coming out blurry. I was able to manage it by changing the exposure time. The biggest success that I had was the lighting because of the weather and also I didn't have a lot of trouble taking photos inside.

For this photo, I came up with the idea of using the plant because I had already took a similar photo of the plant in the beginning of the year and just decided to retake the photo with a more advanced camera. I took this photo with the camera set on Aperture Mode while lying down on the floor to capture the plant. A problem that I had while taking this photo was getting the background to be clear (no people in the background). During the photoshop process, I had trouble with quick selecting her body. Overall, it wasn't a difficult process of taking and photoshopping the photo.

For this photo, I was able to come up with the idea of having the phone fall on top of the person because it is an reputation of how technology is affecting us humans a lot these days and pulling us away from nature. I took this photo in front of the 200 building lying down on the ground. Some problems that I had taking photos of the phone was positioning it and taking multiple photos of my partner due to the lighting. I was able to overcome my problems by setting the camera on multiple shots than one shot and by facing in the opposite direction of where we were shooting. What went well during photoshopping was quick selecting her and what didn't go well was merging the two photos of the background and the phone.

Float

I took this photo by having my partner Keana jumping off of a chair while the camera was set at a lowered angle a little. I had Keana jumped multiple times due to the chair being in the way and so I could capture her in mid-air at the right time. Also, to capture her the camera had to be adjusted a little so that I can get her whole body in the picture.
I took this photo while having Keana standing on a chair. Then, I went in and photoshopped the chair out by erasing it so it can look like she is floating in mid-air. I wished I moved her up a little so it would look like she isn't standing on the ground.
This is my random photo. I took this photo while she was sitting on a chair. I did the same thing to get ride of the chair. I then moved her up a little so it looked like she was levitating. I had a hard time taking this photo because of the background so we had to use the same location from the top photo.
