ARTWORK:
Last week, I went to the Atlanta Beltline and again, went back this week. Art is everywhere when you go outside and look around. I especially saw that when I walked little bit more on the Beltline this time. So, I decided to focus on taking pictures of street art only.
Doesn't it look like people?! Amazing!!
The city
Dogwood Trees by colorful apartment buildings.
The wonderful art on the wall
Just came back from Paris!!
The clouds in the sky and the surroundings: buildings,trees, people.

FOCUS:
Over the weekend my family and I went to the Atlanta beltine which is a project to convert a ring of abandoned railroad tracks around the center of the city and related arteries into one continuous 22-mile trail with 11 miles of related arteries. Nearby there is a wonderful place to visit when you want to grab a quick bite or shop, it's called Krog Street Market. When we went over there we had some Jeni's Ice cream, and chocolate which will be shown in the next blog post. After spending some time in the market it was time to hit the trail.
In this picture, unedited I wanted the camera to focus on the sky and also the light the building was giving off.

Graffiti, the lighting wasn't perfect but the main focus of this picture was the design of the graffiti and how the light was bright and got dim throughout the end of the picture.

GREEN TEA FRAPPUCINO AND 3D BUILDINGS:
A new name for the blog post compared to the others I had. This week I decided to take some pictures for fun, instead of learning something new.Last Saturday my friend and I had a project in AP human geography. It was to build a city or town using models we learned in class, we decided to make it 3-d and it was AMAZING!! We met up at Starbucks and spent 8 hours making the 3-d model,we received a lot of nice comments and had alot of fun!!

I went to go get my drink and noticed this. We laughed for good 3 minutes I'd say.. Later we named our city similar to this.
"Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes.Art is knowing which ones to keep".
What our project looks like!

BLOG 7:
So this week I decided to edit some pictures again... This week I used 2 different editing apps instead of Apple's editing software I used last week, the reason I used editing apps this week was because I wanted to know which popular editing apps(the ones I have heard many times) works best.
Afterlight: $ 0.99
ITunes:
Google Play:
VSCO Cam: Free
ITunes:

Day 17: Technology (original picture)
Day 17: Technology (edited picture)
I used Afterlight to edit the picture:
The green blanket was dark in the original, you can not see blanket just like in the last post you couldn't see the trees in the picture. The edited picture looks so much neat, clean, and looks wonderful!
Day 12: sunset (original picture)
Believe me or not this is actually the original picture, I used my sunglasses to give the picture some life to it...
Day 12: sunset (edited picture)
For this picture, I also used Afterlight. I used a filter to give it a Polaroid effect...
In the original picture it had some warmth and it the edited picture it gave off some coolness.
Day 17: technology (original picture)
Day 17: Technolgy (edited with Afterlight)
For this picture I compared both editing apps to see what it could do- using after light gave it a darker background color, using the VSCO cam it equaled the colors in the background and the focus of the picture.
Personally my favorite is VSCO Cam app to edit pictures.

BLOG 6:
So this week, I decided to learn to edit pictures with learning how exposure, contrast, brightness, saturation affects a picture in quality and what it does to a picture. It was interesting to learn as I did not take many pictures this week.
Day 5: after dark- edited picture
Day 24: animal- edited picture
Day 5: after dark- original picture
As you see in the original picture, you can hardly see the trees or the little sunlight, but once edited using more exposure you can clearly the image with trees and sunlight.
Day 24: Animal- original picture
As you see in the edited picture, I used more contrast to make the lights in the background to darken the back ground then used exposure to brighten brighten the walls, then used saturation to balance the color.

NEW IDEAS:
If you saw my last blog which had a link to my prezi, I presented in class for my "pitch". Now if you saw it, you know I am doing something new each month for my project,this is my first blog of the month.
I still haven't finished the month challenge (which is a good thing), I posted on my blog a while back. The reason I said it was a good thing is because I thought about it that if I finish the challenge I would have nothing amazing to take pictures of, so I decided to incorporate the idea I will be researching tomorrow in my English class into my pictures for the challenge. This is all I have for right now so...See you next week!
Day 29: Black and White
This is a picture of a courtroom at the superior courthouse, I went there when we took a tour of the superior courthouse before the competition for mock trial.

PRESENTATION TIME!
I didn't get a chance to take pictures or research last week, but I did a Prezi. :)
We have to do this presentation called "Pitch" it's like a science fair but for 20 time. We had to make a PowerPoint, prezi, board explaining what project we are doing with 6 questions
1. "What is your project about?"
2. " What is the purpose of your project?"
3. " What is the plan or timeline for your project"?
4. " What materials do you need for your project? How will you obtain your materials?"
5. " Who is your mentor?"
6. " What are you going to do during class time for 20 time?
These were the questions I had to answer. If you want to see my response to these questions check out my prezi!

See you next week!

STARTED THE PROJECT:
I had to force myself to go take pictures!!! Hahaha!! I enjoyed it though it was good! I took two pictures last week to start.
I have noticed that this challenge will help me take and learn about focusing pictures or learn the shutter speed, blur background, etc.. My next part of the project will include something else to learn about in photography.
Day 28: Flowers
These flowers are in my backyard. So pretty!
Day 6:Obsession
First thing I don't know how anybody would live without tasty ice cream and chocolates. This was taken at Jeni's Ice cream. It is a shop in downtown Decatur. It has flavors different from all types of ice creams. The purple ice cream is lavender and the green ice cream is peppermint triumph, lastly is the dark chocolate ice cream.

WHAT TO DO.....
This project can welcome many new ideas such as learning to film, making a video, learning to knit, etc... It can get overwhelming at times to pick an idea. I gave some thought to my project and thought of photography! I can learn how to take artsy photos.! This could get interesting...!! I looked up on Pinterest to start off this project and I found this 30 day photography challenge and I though this could help me start my project off. On this challenge I am skipping self portraits..
FIRST POST!
LWelcome to Charmie's blog! I am going to be blogging every week about a project called 20 time. What is 20 time project you may ask? This 20 time project was originally created by Google.
It is when you spend 20% of your time to create or do something you wanted to do but haven't had the time to do it. There are pros and cons to this type of project such as it can be a learning experience but also can lead students off task easily. I personally think this is an amazing project because it can help creativity and also be able to learn new things. Some ideas I have in mind for this project is photography, cooking, learning to play an instrument, etc.. Overall I am very excited to do this project! Can't wait to start! See you in the next blog!
