Editing Assignment #2

For my second editing assignment I decided to take picture of animals. I tried to stay away from my usual landscape photographs and thought I take a new approach. Below are my favorite pictures out of my 300 photos. These photographs were taken at Bear Mountain State Park 

Narrative Paintings

For my project of Narrative paintings i decided to chose two portraits. The two portrait paintings i chose were of a beagle and of president John F. Kennedy. I tried to chose a famous painting and an everyday average painting. Below are my two paintings turned into photographs.

Rockland Lake Swan's

This winter has been crazy.  It feels like one minute its 32 degrees snowing and the next its 63 degrees and sunny. Well anyways after that beautiful friday we had a couple of weeks ago i went to a lake by my house to take some photographs. Its like the weather was like night and day. The friday it was so warm and the next day, the Saturday i choose to go its 32 degrees freezing and extremely windy.  I found some swans walking on the lake so i decided to photograph them.

The swans looked confused as i was with this crazy weather

Editing Assignment #1

To start this semester it was very hard to decide of what to photograph because all it seemed to do was snow and after photographing snow scenes for a couple months it starts to get old.  To start off my editing assignment I continued from where I left off in intro to digital photography. I kept photographing landscapes.  Below are some of my photos

The next theme I chose was of others. Here is where I photographed my friends. I have never really photographed people before so I thought i would give it a try.   I enjoyed photographing outdoors in the snow
