This assignment was kind of difficult for me because I’m not used to taking pictures on a daily basis. In the end, however, I really enjoyed it. Each of these pictures depict one of the major events of that day. One of my favorites is the “Ice Dog”. I found it by happenstance but was completely fascinated by it. The light just happened to be good at the moment and I was able to capture that picture.

Minor edits such as levels, color and contrast have been made to each of these photos.





Week: 5 A Photo A Day








I took the idea from the template Sister Esplin provided and made my own. The pictures are not in order of the days I took them which is why I didn't add the days with the pictures. I tried it out but didn't like the way it looked so the final product ended up without the days of the week.

Fall time: Chicago, IL, 10.07, Cannon PowerShot SD 630, f/3.5, 1/60
I don't necessarily like the edited photo better than the original but wanted to see what it looked like if I changed the color. I wanted to make the leaves more bold which was accomplished by using the color replace. However, I don't like what it did to his skin color.
