Reflection: Texture and Lighting Basics

1. The picture that is the best shot of this assignment is the third one as one can clearly see what the subject is.
2. The picture that is the weakest shot of this assignment is probably the first one of the painted ceiling because it is not very close to the subject so it is a little harder to see the texture.
3. The weakest image can improve by getting closer to the image if trying to view the texture.
4. I used Photoshop in which I used brightness, contrast, levels, curves, exposure, vibrancy, hue, saturation, and the crop tool.
5. I was able to meet the objectives (goals) of the assignment by taking photos of various items with enough texture so that it would show up in the photo well.  Looking at my images, I was able to enhance the texture with the location of the light source by it only shining on one side so shadows are cast.  The light source for the ceiling image was on the side while the other two were from above.
6. What was easy about this assignment was getting enough photos for the contact sheet because it is easy to press a button a bunch of times with various angles or the same angle.
7. What was difficult about this assignment was finding stuff with a lot of texture that is interesting to look at because I could not find interesting stuff with texture.
8. If I could do this assignment differently, I would make what I am photographing more recognizable.
9. On a scale of 1-10 (10 being my best effort) I would rate my effort on this project an 8 because I did not find anything to interesting but I took other pictures of other stuff in an attempt to find something more interesting.
