Reflection: Color Sampling

1. The color sample of the comic book flowers picture is the best shot of the assignment because it has good color on the most colorful parts of the original picture showing, which also happens to be the main subject.
2. The edit of the flower petals picture is the weakest shot of the assignment because it has funky coloring as the canvas looks blue and there is not much contrast.
3. The weakest image can be improved in future shots by adding more contrast and assuring that the colors look better.
4. I used Photoshop to edit the photos, specifically brightness, contrast, levels, curves, exposure, vibrance, hues, color balance, black and white, and sepia.
5. I was able to meet the objectives (goals) of the assignment by altering the color of the images by using a black and white or sepia filter, or actually adjusting the color.
6. Making the images black and white or sepia was the easiest part about this assignment because I just had to add a filter and adjust a few things.
7. Taking the pictures was the most difficult part of this assignment because I could not think of anything to take a picture of.
8. If I could do this assignment again, I would take different pictures.
9. On a scale of one to ten (ten being my best effort) I would give myself a six out of ten because I went to the store to get the pink flowers.

Reflection: Thanksgiving Photo Challenge

1. The sunflower photograph is the best shot of the assignment because it is clear and in focus.
2. The ornament photograph is the weakest shot of the assignment because it is boring.
3. The weakest image can be improved in future shots by picking stuff to photograph that is a little more interesting.
4. I used Photoshop to edit the pictures, more specifically brightness, contrast, levels, curves, exposure, hue, saturation, color vibrance, and vibrance.
5. I was able to meet the objectives of the assignment by taking photos over thanksgiving break.
6. Taking the photographs was the easiest part of the assignment.
7. Editing the coca-cola picture was the most difficult part of the assignment because of the lights.
8. If  I could dot his assignment again I would change the ornament image because I do not like it.
9. I would rate my effort on this assignment a 7 because it was a fairly easy assignment.

Reflection: Motion Photography

1. I think the knife picture is the best shot of the assignment because it came out exactly how I wanted it to.
2. I think the balloon picture is the weakest shot of this assignment because it does not have great lighting.
3. The weakest image can be improved in future shots by assuring that there is good lighting before taking a picture.
4. I used Photoshop, specifically brightness, contrast, levels, curves, exposure, offset, gamma correction, vibrance, saturation, color adjustment, and the crop tool.
5. I was able to meet the goals of the assignment by adjusting the shutter speed of my camera to get blurred and stop motion photographs.
6. What was easy about this assignment was editing the photos because I am more familiar with the tools.
7. What was difficult about this assignment was coming up with ideas for the photographs because I could not think of anything.
8. If I could dot his assignment differently, I would get a change one of the photos of the dye in water to something else.
9. I would rate my effort on this assignment a 6 because the pictures are not great.
