5.01

the original.

trying to get the color to pop a little more.

desaturated. just to see if its actually a good picture compositionally.

4.04

the original.

played around in photoshop a bit. 

4.03

the original. an interesting look at the library.

played with the levels to really get the colors to be richer.

straightened the picture to make it look less awkward. also cropped the right side, cropping out some of the more awkward looking books. rather focusing on the greens, golds, and reds in the picture.

4.02

a short field of focus. capturing the dead leaves of the tree.

a longer field of focus. getting the wall and the mechanical units.

4.01

blurred action. low shutter speed.

stop action. high shutter speed.

3.04

the original. just a fun picture of interesting colors in the landscape.

pushing up the intensity of the colors. making the picture read a little better.

choosing the porta potty as my subject and really making that pop against the background. as well as pushing the tractor into the background by bringing the intensity of the yellow down, and letting it wash out a bit.

3.03

a pretty picture of Coronado before sunset. its a little dark and the tones too muted for my taste.

the blues and yellows are really played up in this version. making the sun brighter and more intense, as well as its reflection in the bay.
