Assignment 4

Original


Others

What I did using photoshop was that I played with mostly all of the effects, hue/saturation, darks,lighting effects and filters. I like the second one the most because of the effect it gives, I used the glowing edges, a blue hue/saturation, poster edges and a little tweak of the dark/light effects. It used simple filters yet it gave a beautiful picture. All of them used multiple filters to give different effects then you would usually get with different colors so they don't look like the default colors given. They all turned out better than i thought it would :D

Assignment 3

Original Image

Transformed

Using Picasa, I used most of the effects and a couple of tuning and basic fixes. A lot of those effects that I used were tint and glow with a bit of color temperature. My favorite picture is Transform1 because it utilizes many of the same effects used multiple times like glow, saturation and tint.

Research

What kind of Photographs do these photographers make?

Irving Penn's photographs are still images and found objects where he places them in ways that were not though of before using different forms and arrangements using different types of light.

Edward Burtynsky takes photos of landscapes what were changed by people like mines or construction sites, also homesteads and buildings.

What makes their photographs interesting?

Irving Penn's photographs are interesting because of the use of light and the different uses of simple backgrounds and make the subject look good with the help of angled shots.

Edward Burtynsky's photos are interesting because of the of the natural scenary and lighting to make the subjects look awe inspiring.

Was there a specific concept or reason behind their photographs?

Edward Burtynsky's concept was to show how a "man's desire for prosperity, and the suffering we exact on the environment".

Irving Penn's concept was, I think, to be able to make anything into art because he says that "Photographing a cake can be art,".
