Filter Fun...again!

This is a picture of my cat, Anya, that I took a couple of days ago. I used the Neon Glow affect. I set it at the color yellow because I think it makes the colors on the wall and on her chest look really cool.

This photo is of my other cat Burrito. I also used the Neon Glow tool and set it at yellow for this picture.

This picture I have posted before, but not with this filter on it. I cut out the flower and then played around with the background. I don't really like this photo, I think that the ground looks to dark, but that's  what the website wanted me to do.
I took this picture when I was in NYC. It is of a tree in Central Park. I did the same thing with this picture that I did with the flower one above it.

:D

Filter Fun!

I took this picture when I was in NYC over the summer. I edited it in Photoshop to create more contrast and learn how to use even more filters. For this picture I created two layers, and then used Gaussian Blur on one of the layers. I then changed the blending mode to Overlay. This filter helps the light tones brighter, and the dark tones even darker.

I did the same thing with this photo I took when I was in California.

This is a photo I took of myself in my front yard. I was mainly bored and wanted to test out my new camera so I set the camera on the 10 second timer. I also used Gaussian Blur for this picture, but I only put the opacity at 50% and kept it at a normal blending mode.

I took this picture at my aunt's house, and used the same blurring affect.
:D

Flowers


So this is a picture that I made on the first day of class. I took a photo off the internet of just one flower, and then I used the clone stamp tool to make a bunch of flowers. I then used a few filters to make it look like it was painted.

Night

I made this night photo from a day picture that I got off the internet of the Eiffel Tower. I burned a lot of the photo and then erased the clouds in it. I also added the blue color to the sky, and placed white dots that look like stars.
:D

iPod


This is my iPod ad picture. I do like the picture, but I don't like how the guy's head turned out. He was doing a handstand so his head was at a weird angle and made it look kinda funny as just a black shadow. I think it was a fun project though.
:D

ABC


Here is my ABC contact sheet. I took these pictures mainly outside, of objects I thought looked like letters of the alphabet. My favorite letter from these pictures would have to be the "N" just because I think it looks really interesting. The "N" is actually made out of a board that happened to be broken at my aunt's house, but it turned out perfect.
:D

Space


This is my space image. I took all of these pictures, such as the background, animals, and flowers, off of the internet and put them together. I tried to use space by making objects that were closer to the viewer larger, like the butterfly on the plant. Then I made the objects that are farther away smaller, like the leopard on the path.
:D

Planet

Here is the planet that I created using photoshop for the Tiny Planet project. I resized the photo, and then use the polar coordinates filter to make both of the ends meet and look like a planet. There was a line down the middle of the planet because of the filter, so i used a variation of the colon stamp, healing tool, and blur tool to get rid of that line.
:D
