This is a picture of my dog that I took when i borrowed the camera. Both of my dogs dont really do much they just sleep & eat. since he is older i thought it would be better bc you can see his hairs graying.
in this shoot lighting was a pain in the ass to do, it was either them being too exposed && looking too lit up or the picture coming out looking too flat. the picture turned out really light && that was my fault in Photoshop. i was in a rush to get it done & up on my blog before the end of Friday bc Friday was also the day i remembered that this assignment was due for the grading period so i tried to get it finished & on my blog but it didnt get put up anyways bc i completely spaced on it. when i do black & white i usually like it a little darker than this & sharper. i feel like krisels face ( the one in the Gi/ front) is much lighter than Danis & i was trying to fix it but since class had already ended & i had to get something up i saved & copied it onto my drive. if i were to retake this shoot, id wish to have had more time for set up, shooting & editing. id take more time in photoshop & try to tweak things that i think need fixing & not just settle for what i was able to do in that amount of time.
in this photoshoot i was struggling to get the camera to focus bc i wasnt used to the lens & i was really sore from training so my arms werent working right. but the ones that i did came out really good & i was really happy w it especially when i started editing because i used the tool that i learned when ms.miles was teaching it. i used sharpening tool, on the second picture for the violin, then i used the burn tool on his face on the second picture as well bc when i played w the brightness & exposure his face was too bright so i used the burn tool to darken it more. in the first picture i made it black & white, played w the brightness & contrast & sharpened the picture. i liked how they turned out bc they both look professional.
