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.



    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: 


Google Play: 



    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) 

    Day 17: Technology (edited with VSCO Cam) 

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 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- edited picture 

    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.
