Layer

This is a picture of my little brother and sister. I thought I would add candy because they LOVE candy, what kid doesn't? I didn't really like this picture, it didn't really come out how I wanted it to. I don't think there is enough going on in the picture, it's boring. I do like the colors though. I mostly used the cutout filter, I love how it made the picture look. I probably should have played around more with other filters and made more layers.
I am so glad I took this class. It's helped me improve on my picture taking and also introduced me to photo shop. I think photo shop is an amazing program. I love how you can turn awful pictures into something amazing. I am not quite familiar with all the things photo shop can do, but I can't wait to learn. :] I use it all the time. I create my own personal pictures, that are not for digital art. I just love using it and testing out the new tools.

Best one :]

This is an octopus I found in my front yard one day. I think this is the most successful picture I have taken. This picture has great composition, negative and positive space. The positioning of the picture is centered and octopus is lop sided. It shows lots of different shapes as well. The angle of the picture makes it more appealing to the eye. A straight on picture isn't that fun to look at. I took the picture from up above to give it a better look. I love the colors in it, they are so bright. The octopus catches your eye, he pops out. I like how it's an unusual picture, not everyone has an octopus in their front yard.
