scary expression

I think this picture is more funny than scary! It looks like my face is on fire. When I look at it it makes me smile because of the goofiness of the photo, although it's titled 'scary face'.

When I look at this picture it makes me happy. I think that it's really cool that we can create something like this. I look like a whole different thing. It's also cool that I can merge three different picture to make one cool one.

I really like this picture because we got to play with a lot of different tools. When I look at this photo it makes me feel like I accomplished because I was able to gasp the tool and use them once this project was over.

creative me

This project was an opportunity for us to put the tools we have learned to use. We were to take one of our portraits, and change it creatively using the following: selection tools, layers, adjustment layers, layer styles, blending options, paint brushes and opacity.

I liked this position and the stuffed bear added to the feel of the picture. I liked the lasso because it allowed you to select free handed. It also allowed you to select two place at once. For example, it allowed me to select the stuffed bear without selecting my arm, shirt, or pants. I feel pretty confident with photoshop. I could learn more and I would like to master the tricks we've learned so far.

adjustment layers

In this exercise we learned about Adjustment layers. Adjustment layers allow you to add adjustments to your image on separate layers instead of directly to the image itself. This comes in handy during long complicated projects. In Photoshop every tool is specifically designed to help improve your photo. However, here we took some artistic liberties and explored adjustments creatively.
