Double-take (double exposure photography)

For this photo, I lined up two sidewalks so the side walk would be clear, while the trees and sky faded into each other. One path had trees on the left, while the other had trees on the left. This created faded trees all around with clear trees in the middle, as well as "phantom shadows" on the sidewalk.

People think of fire as destructive, while seeing flowering plants as a sign of life. I liked the contrast in these two ideas with the diversity in color they presented when put together. It is easy to see both the flowers and the flames, but at the same time it is impossible not to notice the other.

Another contrast I liked was the ground and the sky. The shoe is low on pavement, while the light is in the sky and unaccessible. The foot seemed almost like a beam of light to me, which is why I placed it under the bulb.

This is my favorite picture of this set. It looks like these two are walking away rom a swing on a path. To me it suggests growing up and taking the path of life away from the playthings of childhood, but while keeping the same people around as you grow up together.

The white underbelly of the whale allowed me to make the whale behind visible through the other. I lined up their flukes to create a similarity that can be a focal point.

The lay of the land (landscape photography)

I was inspired by pictures I saw of London viewed through puddle reflections, so I decided to do the same thing of the landscape.

I was very intrigued by this curved tree, so I decided to put the curve in perspective by placing the tree between two straight trees for comparison.

This picture had a good fore, middle, and background, as well as much color, which was lost in changing it to black and white.

I thought the contrast between rock and plant was very cool. The landscape is viewable over the macro view of this rock.

This is my favorite photo of this project. I like how easy it is to see the background through the subject grass.

2 views (picture changes dependent on orientation)

This is a "double exposure" picture i took of my face over a log cabin. When vertical, the cabin is very visible, while I am hard to see. When horizontal, I am more visible, while the cabin is more of a background.

Scannera (scanner used as a camera)

I like how this picture starts with a flat picture on the left, than blurs and ends with a nice flash in my left eye.

Just for fun photoshop pictures

This is a photo I took to make infrared, but I stopped halfway through the process, because I thought it looked better this way. I like the grass purple, with the bluish accents on the rocks. The colors blend much better than the infrared version.

I took the positive and negative of this photo and blended them together through various filters until it resembled a painting slightly.

I was curious what would happen if i did infrared on a regular picture. The red tints in their faces makes them appear to have green skin. Being a fan of Shrek, I had to keep this picture.

This is the reflection of a tree in a puddle. Taking the negative and positive through multiple filters, I got this cool color scheme, and the tree appears to be outlined.

Hidden colors (revealing the infrared light not visible to the naked eye)

This photo had two different shades of green, which translated into two different shades of infrared. I like the striking bright pink of the forward grass along with the darker, more hidden color of the trees in the background.

This is my favorite photo of this set, it encompasses the macro view of a few blades of grass, with the landscape captured behind, as well as the distinct patch of brown in the middle. The disruption of the bright colors with a dull brown is what makes this picture for me.

In this photo, I tried to capture very little green, but still enough to be noticeable. The picture is relatively the same as the original, but with just enough change to be recognizable as an infrared photo.

This photo is of a tree with green leaves in the background, with a tree with distinct red leaves in the foreground. By switching to infrared these colors were switched. The tree in front is now green, with the other being red.

This picture seems almost unreal. The pink grass behind the rocks has purple highlights, while the rocks and ground themselves have very earthy tones, creating a strange imbalance in the front and back of the photo.

Double exposure

This is my first double exposure photo. I took my two favorite photos and overlapped them. I like how the flower takes up the negative space left by the window
