Architectural Photography

This is a photo of downtown Denver. This photo was really bright and light colors. I edited it to make the photo darker. I also adjusted the levels of the red, blue, and green to make the photo more balanced. The photo has a lot of blue to make it better looking.





















This is another photo of downtown. I made the photo brighter and i made the photo more blue. To balance this i also adjusted the red and the green to make the photo more balanced between the colors.



















This is a photo of a building in downtown Denver. I took the photo at this angle to make the building seem taller. I like this photo because the building has reflecting glass and makes the photo look better. The photo had a lot of blue on it so i balanced the red and the green to make the photo better.

Macro photography

This is a photo of a plant. In the photo there is snow at the bottom of the plant but is hard to tell because the camera is focused on the top of the plant. To edit the photo I made the green come out more and the photo a little brighter. 

This is a photo of those red things in a bush full with snow. This photo is cool because the only color is red and it pops out. I made the red come out more so it stands out. I also made the photo darker because the snow makes the photo brighter. 

This is a photo of a flower with water on it. I took this photo at this angle to make sure you can see the water and not have a background. I made the photo darker so there would not be a background and it would just be blacked out. I also made the color on the flower come out more. 

Night

This is a photo of the city at night. This reminds me of night because it is night and all the lights are on and thats what I think of when night comes. To edit i increased the saturation and vibrance of the photo so the blues would come out more and the yellows in the light came out more.

This is a photo of lightning I took. I took this in the middle of the night during a storm. This photo was so bright because of the light that it created a lot of noise. To fix the noise I blurred the photo and did not blur the lightning so it would still stand out but would not have that much noise.

This is a photo of a small town. This is at night and it is also very calm and peaceful because there are no cars and the town is quiet. I added brightness and contrast. This photo also has a lot of noise but leaving it alone left the photo fine.

Sports

This is a photo of football at state semi-finals. This photo was right when they scored a touchdown to tie the game in the fourth quarter. The light in the photo is cool because it is behind the clouds and the lights are glowing on the field.

This was another photo in the fourth quarter. They just got the ball back and they have a chance to win with only a couple of minutes left. 

This is a photo of Gracelyn hitting the ball. She is mid hit and the photo is really cool because her head is focused but her body is in the motion of hitting. 

Birds

This is a photo of birds. I took this while driving so the photo was a little blurry. I cropped the photo and didn't like the look. I rotated it so the birds would be flying down and I like the look of the photo. This photo is unique and very cool. 

This is a photo of a bird flying over a lake. I took this up in Eagles Nest. This was the only bird out at the time and I thought that was kinda cool. This photo is not that great and the quality of the bird is not the best. I cropped the photo a little bit to make the bird more the focus of the photo instead of the lake. 

This is a photo on top of the crest. I took this at the moment the bird started to go down so the whole body would show. I made the photo a little dark and more colorful. The light of the sun shining through the clouds is a good background. 

Light

This is a photo of outside lights hanging above a restraunt patio. I made the photo blurry so it has a better effect on the light. The little bulbs of light blurred make them bigger and stand out more instead of reflecting off of surrounding objects. I made the photo a little brighter so you can see the rest of the photo better and the lights look brighter. 

This photo has many light concepts in it. The lights continuing down the street mall light up the trees and make them look bright and stand out. The street lamps light the walkway. Also the store signs are bright and glowing to attract people. The brighter and more colorful the sign to more people are attracted to it. I did not need to edit this photo that much. At the time it would have been better to stop and focus the camera better. 

This photo is really cool because the lights draping over the street make them look like they are floating. I brightened this photo and made the reds come out more from the cars. The lights continue down the road and almost makes it look like they keep continuing. 

Lonely Tree

This is a photo of a tree. I tried content aware to get another tree out of the background. Instead it just copied the tree to the side and did not go well. Overall it is a good picture with colors enhanced with the sun shining through.

This tree could not fit in the ill frame of the picture. I used content aware to get a tree in the background out. It turned out really good and was hard to find a sky with all the branches in the way. I made this photo a little darker so the white on the tree came out more.

Using content aware on this photo was difficult. There were two trees I needed to get out and a bush. This photo turned out the best for the content aware. I fully eliminated the two trees and had a little trouble with the bush but overall the photo came out good.
