Past Photos

 

1. Fuzzy Stems: 6-4-2010; 7:59 p.m.; Rexburg; f 3.2; 1/32; Fujifilm JV100

For this picture I used Photoshop to add a bit more contrast to the shot. In addition, I increased the color saturation to intensify the red in the stems.  Flash was used.

2.  Shoe: 11-21-2010; 8:33 a.m.; Athens, AL; f 3.2; 1/90; Fujifilm JV100

I made the picture a tad darker, heightened the contrast, and slightly saturated the colors. Flash was used.

3. Mountain Majesty: 7-31-2010; 4:24 p.m.; Pikes Peak, CO; f/4.3; 1/400; Fujifilm JV100

In this picture, I brightened the sky, added more contrast, and saturated the blue. No flash used.

4. Benched: 10-10-2010; 11:10 a.m.; Fort Wayne, IN; f/5.9; 1/100; Fujifilm JV100

The color was balanced, brightness adjusted, and contrast increased. No Flash used.

5. Kitty Whiskers: 9-26-2010; 12:43 p.m.; Fort Wayne, IN; f/3.2; 1/32; Fujifilm JV100

I darkened this photo added more saturation to get the green to pop. Flash did fire. 

During the last semester, my husband and I traveled across the states to visit family. All of these pictures were taken along the way with our small and simple Fujifilm camera. Personally, I've always enjoyed taking pictures of nature and daily items at different angles. I've never used a manual setting before, so I am excited to learn. When taking these photos, I used the macro, landscape, and portrait settings.  After taking the pictures, I uploaded them into Photoshop and made a few changes, but, due to my inexperience with the program, I did not alter the pictures much at all.
