land scaping & etc.

This photo chose does no belong to but I find it interesting because if you look at this picture from far it looks like its underwater. The clouds and the deep blue sky made me think at first it was water , till looked up closer.what I see are clouds,a tree , and rcks. I like the set up from taking this picture from an angle, I like the high contrast of he sky and rocks in this picture are complmentry colors (orange, and blue).
.










These are pictures from my trip to Indio , California. The background is dried land/desert. What I are engery wind mill, rocky hills, bushes, and shrub. the lighting is natural from the sun and I shot these pictures with a point and shoot camera while riding in a car. I took a risk of shooting pictures while moving, but I have to say they came out good. They are very high contrasted from using photoshop. The orginal pictures were faded gray and neutral colors.

Manjari Sharma
Water portraits

Manjari captures the very rarest moments of others. Her style of using her shower and the very natural light is unique. She invites random people into home to take pictures in her shower with herself with them. As her guests come into her home, she makes them hot tea. Both her the model try to connect at first at get to know each other a bit. She brings her models into the shower along with herself. As warm water run onto them a sense of relaxation crosses there face. as she tries to get to know them more in the shower her subject and herself share storys. as they talk the models expression becoes more natural.

What I see is a picture of me with a white back ground begind me. I see a belt,girl, t-shirt and pants. The background is clean no marks and the light shows all the daetail of her face. The picture captures the upper body. The picture mainly focus on her face. I think the meaning of this picture to capture the model in really life and you regular sun light no speacial head lights or what so ever. The over all of this project was interesting and fun. Using photoshop and learning how to use it was helpful I can change the picture , I can mae my face look softer and light. Putting graphic designs was a bit tricky, after finshing it. It looks awesome.

Four different people, Four different expressions

What I see in these four different pictures are four different people. I see glasses, puffy hair, and one big bow. The way the pictures are alined is clean and organized. Each picture looks as if they were real ID photo taken .The picture is repeated four times ,stacked upon each other neatly. The picture captures the upper body from the shoulers up. The image is mainly focused at the ppersons heads. This was intentionally made to look like head shots for ID photos. Each photo have one different person that is repeated I think the meanng of this was for the photographer to capture him or herself to look different in every picture. The back ground is white to focus on the persons head so you can see the detail of the ID photo to comfirm the identity of the person. The picture was taken in doors. I think this was a sucessful project I captured my self in for different looks "differnet peoeple,different expressions".

Hot Lights


I see a Nintendo DSI , cowboy hat, and one happy girl. The hot light is focused on her and the light is coming from a left angle. This work is organized in way to have the hot light shines on her to show detail of her expression while playing the Nintendo DSI. I see circles, squares and rectangles.I'm trying to communicate or tell you that you can have fun with the smallest of things, even if you old or young . You can enjoy new things or old things. The area around her is dark because I was focusing the camera on her and her enjoyment. This was taken indoors in a dark room . I think this project was a succes I've captured her in a spot light that focused on her and the background is black which emphasises on my model, but I could have improved the lighting and the exposure lens on my camera.

What I see in this photo are two lions , one tiger, mountains, boulders, river, and trees. This work is organized ,because I blended the lions with there shadows added into the background. I see triangles, circles, and rectangles. The tiger captures my eye first so when I look at this photo I'm mainly focusing on the tiger because its out on place or in a different environment. This captures both lightness and darkness because I can see details of the image and shadows. This assignment was to learn how to use photoshop and create one different picture by using two different pictures. This was a sucessful assignment because I learned how to use photoshop to create or remake pictures
