For this project I chose the hanging flower baskets outside of the Starbucks in Pioneer Courthouse Square for the in class photo shoot. I decided to do these because they had a lot of variety and flower are one of my favorite subjects because of how they look good at all distances because of their color and shape. For the thirty photos we took on our own I chose to do some muslim themed russian nesting dolls I got from my Arabic teacher because I could position them in many different ways and places.
This photo was taken from underneath one of the flower baskets looking up at the metal structure that they were hanging from and the overcast sky. I edited it in order to darken the sky and add more texture, giving the illusion of cloud, it also helps to balance the flowers and sky.
On this photo I added more yellow tones to the building in the background to give it a more antique look to go with its older style. I then gave the greenery a silvery tone to contrast with the yellow.
For this picture I made the metal structure have a more bluish stained look along with making the flower baskets more cool toned. I also had to crop out some distracting aspects that were on the street and to draw attention to the shape the beams and column form.
In this photo I put the dolls in a pile of leaves on my deck. I then used color sketch which brought out the texture of the wooden deck and dead leaves. To edit it I added more color back into the photo and cropped off the top and bottom.
For this photo I used an in camera effect which was called miniature effect. To edit it I added more warmth and further blurred the edges.
This image shows the bottom half of the dolls nested together. I decided to make it black and white while editing because it helps to bring the photo together and also adds more emphasis
