WIT:
You don't have to comment on this photo, because I deleted the last one (that worm thing scared me after a while). But on a deeper level, I post things here sometimes for the wrong reason. This time I'm submitting it because I believe in it and don't care if anyone else wishes to validate it.
Right now I'm very stressed. I just became incorporated as a photography business and I'm applying for project grants to show in galleries. The gallery owners are all about money and product, and so I've been really trapped in this. My mission is to provoke storytelling in my community with the photos I create. Storytelling that provokes thought and opens minds to new ideas.
Then I saw this star flower on the ground. Lately I've been finding a lot of things on the ground, and think these things are sometimes very important. This flower is in a glass by my computer to remind me of what's important. I love all the submissions this week and always look forward to seeing what you all produce, and I'm also so amazed at how confident most of you are.
This is SOOC, except for a crop and a slight alteration in white balance.
Strobist umbrella specular assignment. Set-up pretty much as the assignment says, except i don't have an umbrella, so the flash is bare. It's about a meter from the background, up and right.
edit: looks like this is going to be the best i manage: final-ed.
The bare flash brings out the sweaty and gnarled complexion this assignment's been causing... The focus is a little off too, but then the assignment has been having that effect as well.
i actually took these portrait photo’s last summer for my family. not sure if this counts for this assignment but thought i would share anyways!
My daughter painted a "weather rock" this week during Spring Break. When we got home this afternoon, it was a little rainy and dreary, and when I saw the rock on our porch, I thought it would be a perfect fit for this assignment.

Students from all academic levels suffer from hypertension and anxiety for completing their assignments before the submission deadline. With new surroundings in college and increased social interactions, students often procrastinate and postpone assignment writing to the last hour. And to add to the mayhem, many students don’t really know how to write an assignment properly. But knowing how to write an assignment with a logical structure and apt outline of introduction, opinion/s and conclusion; is highly imperative. Be it in college or school, students should be familiar with and have knowledge on how to write an assignment by keeping all specifications in mind. CFS’s guide on How to write an assignment includes many tips and tricks of the trade. To gain helpful tips by CFS, watch the video How To Write An Assignment> Assignment Writing Tips on CFS’s exclusive YouTube channel.

This girl was sitting on the pavement outside our office all day. Sometimes she took a photo and sometimes she made notes.
Eventually I gave in and asked what was going on. Apparently she is a student at the media studies centre (or whatever the old printers' college at Elephant & Castle is called now) and was on an assignment.
Everyone in the class was given a different location where they had to go and stay for 5 hours "soaking up the atmosphere" and observing. I could not work out exactly what the end result of all this was to be, except possibly lung disease from 5 hours of soaking up exhaust fumes.
So... if anyone else in Lambeth/Southwark spotted a lonely figure hanging around the same spot all day today, it could well have been another media studies student.

When I first bought these suspenders, the wife balked because she said they "aged" me. I promised I would not wear them outside the back yard so we were good to go...
Seems that the wife has now changed her attitude and wants me to wear them whenever there is a chance that I might have to bend over.
WIT: Wife pulling trigger.

Assignment 3 was called "Made to Be Photographed." I decided to use this opportunity to vent my frustration with the current situation in our public education system.
My expertise with photo editing is minimal, but I do have some experience. I used to edit a lot of my own pictures that I took when I was younger, but I would just use filters and such on photobucket. When I got into high school, I never took a photography class, or a class for Photoshop, but some of the classes I went through did touch on photo editing. Using Photoshop for me was really about trying new things and trying to create in Photoshop, as well as use a photo as the focus. I just did each tutorial that I thought I wanted to have the effect from. It took a while to go through tutorials, but I think it paid off!
For my Assignment Two, I used Photoshop CS6. Here are the steps that I took in creating my photograph.
1. Original Photo Manipulation
a. I Insert the SD card into laptop
b. Copy one image to a new working directory
c. Create a backup of the original image
d. In a new project, I created a canvas size the same size as my original image
e. In a new project, I opened the image I took
f. After selecting the magnetic lasso tool, I set the feather to 10px
g. I cropped the image by selecting everything that I am seeing through the window, besides the object in the photo, which was me in the side view mirror
h. And the objects through the rear window
i. The top of the door was over exposed from the reflection of the sun light so I used the magnetic lasso tool with more feather and selected the glare
j. I used the image adjustment exposure setting and decreased the exposure
2. Creating stars
a. On a new project and layer I used the filter->noise->add noise with white and black s
b. Using the image levels I adjusted the white noise out to reduce the white specs
c. On a new layer I used an X shaped feather brush shape, made it almost as small as the other stars to make larger stars
d. Changed the brush size a bit larger and added a few larger starts in a closer cluster
e. Added more variant with more sizes
3. Creating cloudy nebula
a. Created a new project with the same canvas size as the original photo
b. I changed my gradient settings to be radial from dark grey to black
c. On the background layer I used bucketed the gradient tool
d. I a new layer named clouds I used the render clouds
e. In the layer style I added a liner gradient overlay with red yellow blue and purple
f. Changed the style to screen
g. Changed the angle and did it again on another layer and this time the angle was 90 degrees from the previous angle
4. Created Planet rings
a. First created the rings in a new project by generating noise again and this time using the distort tool I added as much swirl as possible
b. Lasso tool with feather an oval shape close to the outside of a ring
c. Inverted selection and deleted everything else in that layer
d. Lassoed the center in an oval shape that matches the outer oval and deleted the center of the donut
e. Using the free transform tool I rotated to give an angle to the rings
f. Touched up the far left and right with the eraser to give them more ring shape
g. Layer style color overlay made it purple
5. Planet surface
a. In a new layer lassoed a circle about the size of the inner oval of the rings
b. I needed a texture of a rock for my brush tool so I took a picture of a rock I found out side and cropped a tiny piece of it for a pattern for my brush tool
c. Filled the circle completely with no repeating pattern
d. In a new layer, filled the same planet selection with all black
e. Added an outer glow to the planet as an atmosphere and an inner glow to use as a shadow feather to my planet texture
f. On a new layer I used the free transform tool to make the circle larger than the original planet to add a shadow effect. This created a more crescent moon shape
g. I added these layers to my texture layer and used the layer style that made the planet look like there is a shadow on it
h. Used the eraser tool with lots of feather to erase the dark side of the planet as a touch up
6. Combine pieces
a. Copied the stars layers from the stars project and
b. Copied the layers from the cloud project to the project with the original photo
c. Did the same with the planet but it was way to big so I had to resize it using the scale tool to fit it inside my rings
d. Then I had to erase the portion of the rings that go behind the planet with very low feathering
e. With the cloud layer selected took the eraser tool with high feathering to make the clouds only appear as a cloud in space
f. Dragged the images to place them in a visible pot once I unhide my original photo layer so you can see the objects I made through the window easily
7. Created a shooting star
a. On a new layer I took the paint brush tool with a circle no feathering and made a dot
b. In the effects I added a motion blur with very high distance in the angle that makes the shooting star shoot more across the sky
c. Then used the eraser tool with high feather to give the comet tail more of a point
d. Once the comet was positioned correctly saved a backup of the project then saved a copy with +the flattened layers image and exported it to JPEG
I think that the edits I made completely changed the look and meaning of the original photo. The first photo was just an average scene. It was just me through a side mirror of a car, which obviously isn’t very exciting. By changing it to be outerspace surrounding me, not only creates a really cool sci-fi effect, but also tells something about me; that I am super interested in space! I think that the edits are very dramatic, but I really had fun exploring and creating something I’m proud of in Photoshop. The meaning is completely different in this photo of a car flying through outerspace than it was in the original.
Thanks,
Madi
Active Assignment Weekly Challenge - From the Hip
The challenge involved taking photos with your camera at your hip instead of in front of your face. I took this on my way to work as I was walking through a pedestrian crossing. It's not a photo that I would have normally taken, and I would never have considered creating the tilt - I suppose that's part of the value of this kind of challenge.
The first assignment I've received this year in my industrial location class was the architecture assignment.
Basically, we had to go out and find a building that had a majority of the windows lit and photograph it.
Interesting mini story:
Right after I finished photographing this, I fell knee deep into a sewer in downtown Toronto.
All in all, this was a good experience.

I used Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 to edit my photos for this assignment. I do have some simple editing techniques with editing, but this assignment I went with what I could do best for the photo and just did simple editing to enhance the photos life with color. I just came back from Kauai about 3 days ago, and this was a beautiful water fall that I took a picture of. I felt the photo was too bright, didn't show enough of the blue sky and green that flourished in the plants. I messed and adjusted with the exposure, brightness, temperature, highlights, sharpness, and shadows. I feel bringing the highlights up more made the blue sky pop. The saturation made the color brighter with the sky and greenery. The sharpness helped show the formation of the trees better. The meaning of the photo is to sit back and relax and take in the green atmosphere.

Done for Photography Critique Assignments. Subject: Low Key
What it Took: I have usually preferred full tonal pictures and have never before attempted a low key photo (on purpose) . So I view some of the examples and the tutorials and went to work
A single light source. Why not my computer which my wife claims sees my face more than she does And if the computer why not "Photography Critique Assignments"?
I set the tripod very close to me and used a wide angle lens. The lens was not more than 18 inches from the back of my head. I turned of the lights in the room. I set the camera on Aperture priority and the EV compensation to -1.0.
I used a tripod and the self-timer. I had used this self-timer so infrequently in the past that it took me a dozen tries to get it figured out.
On the computer I removed some extraneous light coming in from the left of the computer and adjusted the curves. The computer screen still looked to bright so I isolated in and adjusted the levels selectively. I had to also add some brightness and contrast to my head.
