Final Rendition Image

My photoshoot started at the Acme in Burlington. For it I used Tim, Matt, Dana, a regular cart and a kid cart. Alot of the photos either came out too dark, the people were badly placed, or they were too bright. The photo in the top left corner was the best image that I took the entire day. The next time I shot, I was inside of the Acme using Tim and Suki. This time I used Tim as a customer and Suki as the lady in the back. This was supposed to be a reshoot from the first day, but I liked pictures from both days so I edited two images instead of one.

Artist Bio-
William Eggleston is my photographer.
Upbringing- He was born and raised in Memphis, Tennessee. His dad was an engineer, who failed as a cotton farmer and his mom was the daughter of a prominent local judge.
Education-He went to Webb School originally at the age of fifteen, then he went to Vanderbuilt County Mississippi for his first year of college. He then transferred the Delta College and finally the University of Mississippi for five years before he got into photography.
Art Experience/Mediums-Before he began taking photos he played the piano, messed around with electronics and liked to draw. He also did Kodachrome slides which are an amateur form of photography which describes ordinary people and objects framed squarely in the center of the picture.
Artistic Background-
He started getting into photography when he looked at a book that was made by Walker Evans, Henri Cartier-Bresson and Robert Frank.

My Image- I choose this image because I like the simplicity of it and I believe that it is the simplicit, the lighting, and the placement of the people that make the photo appealing to me. I think that he's very original. He only takes photos of an object once because he believes that he is wasting time on that image when he could be out taking more, better photos of different objects. He originally was a black and white photographer, but then color cameras first came out when he was taking pictures. He had to take into account lighting and different colors around him and I find him to be very interesting in the way that he stages his items or people and how his colors are always faded. I plan on recreating this image by using Tim Nooney as the main focus of the picture and either a random woman or my mom as the lady in the background. To recreate it I plan on taking the photo early in the morning when the sun is first coming up, taking a couple when the sun is high in the sky and then a couple when the sun is setting to see how different lighting effects the picture.

Quotes-
"I only ever take one picture of one thing. Literally. Never two. So then that picture is taken and then the next one is waiting somewhere else."
"It's jsut about impossible to follow up with words. They don't have anything to do with each other."

Water Reflection Tutorial

I got the link from the main blog page. http://www.photoshopessentials.com/photo-effects/water-reflection/

I modified the tutorial but not adding a a dark blue color for the water and I made the lines thinner so that the ripples would be thinner.

I liked the tutorial but it is better used for a picture involving an animal or a person.

Easy Watercolor Painting Effect

I got the link from the main blog page. http://www.photoshopessentials.com/photo-effects/watercolor-painting/

I modified the tutuorial by making certain effects a little bit lighter using a higher number.

I think the tutorial is best for landscape pictures or pictures that have a lot of things going on within them.

English Painting Tutorial

I got the tutorial off of the main blog page. http://www.photoshopcafe.com/tutorials/sketch/sketch.htm

I modified the tutorial by increasing the brightness off the picture before changing it. I also used a lower opacity then the tutorial said too.

I think that this tutorial would be best for pictures of a single object or of a landscape.

Aperture- The aperture of the lens is the size of the lens itself. The larger the size of the aperture the more light that it allows into the the film or the image sensor.

Shutter Speed- The shutter is controlled by the shutter release button on the camera. The shutter allows for light to reach the film to take a picture and also blocks light out when you aren't taking a photo. The shutter speed is how long your shutter remains open while taking a picture.


Each Camera Mode- Shooting with the automatic settings on my camera allows for the camera to choose the best mode for the scene or picture I am trying to take.

I like this picture because it is in black and white. Black and white give pictures more emotion. The man's position in the photo and what he is doing gives the picture more emotion.

I found the picture on google images.

I would like to recreate this effect because I like black and white photos and because you can show or make images more dramatic.

I like this photo because of the colors. The colors blend really well together making for a good photo. It is also a very simple picture which makes it just as nice.

I would like to recreate this effect because it puts more emphasis on a certain point in the picture and blurs the rest.

I like this picture because of the black and white effect. I like how all the colors blend together making for a nice photo and creating more details.
