Landscape Photo


I took this photo over the weekend but I'm not quite sure exactly where this was taken. We were on a road trip this weekend and these were some of the pictures that came out of it. I really liked the way the clouds looked and how the colors really came through. ISO-300 Aperture-5.6 Shutter Speed-1/60

Car Retouch


Doing this demo i learned a lot about the Gimp program. I learned how to use the free select to move around the car and change the background. I also learned how to use the clone tool and used it to get rid of all the little spots on the car. The dodge and burn tool helped me a lot too. I also used the levels tool to tint the windows. I now have many more things I can do to my photos to make them the best they can be.

Photo Project 1 (Animals)




This is my best photo. I wanted to do an animal that was different from what everyone else was doing and I think that these goats were the perfect choice. The goats personality really shines in this photo. His name is Phil and he was begging for food. ISO-100 Aperture-6.3 Shutter Speed-1/80
