Blog post nine: Looking at daguerreotypes and faking a darkroom - analogue practices in a digital world.

 Reflect -

why would this be useful in your work? It could be useful by trying to add edited photos to the panels

What mood or feeling does this kind of editing create? It gives the feel of a dark vintage and old type of photo.

How can you develop from here? To make this try to match my theme and just make it soft

Alexander the Great was born in Macedonia 356BC, Died 323BC ( Age 32 ). He ascended to the Macedonia throne in 336BC after the murder of his father Phillip II. Also, he is considered at the same time because he was one of the greatest in the military. He was very sentimental; he named 20 cities after himself, one after his horse.

Space and balance: In the picture, it got divided by the leading line which is on the front there's grass and on the other side it's tall trees. 

Space and balance: In this photo, it divides by the leading line. At the back, there's white snow and grass. At the front, there's a plate of circle and mandarin. 

Space and balance: There are a lot of spaces in this photo. The part of the water. The leading line makes them separate.

 Forest

ORIGINAL

Forest.edit1 

used: Levels and Curves

Forest.edit2

used: Levels, Curves and Photo filter ( 40 )

Forest.edit3

used: Levels, Curves and Hue/Saturation.

Critique and analyse with your peers what looks best:

The first image is definitely the best looking among the bunch. Compared to edit number 2, the white balance is on point.

Compare to the original and make notes:

Comparing the original photo to these 2 edits makes it different and for the 3 it looks washed out by white and less colour to pop out.

Nature

ORIGINAL

Nature.edit1

used: Levels and Curves

Nature.edit2

used: Levels, Curves and  Photo filter

Nature.edit3

used: Levels, Curves and Hue/Saturation.

Critique and analyse with your peers what looks best:

The first photo is the best-looking edited photo. This is because the image has more contrast and details of the trees and the river in the photo. Compared to the two photos, the first one also has a balance in both highlights and shadows.

Compare to the original and make notes.

The original photo is just like photo 1 but without the edit. The edit makes it stand out.

Duck

ORIGINAL

Duck.edit1

used: Levels and Curves

Duck.edit2

used: Levels, Curves and  Photo filter

Duck.edit3

used: Levels, Curves and Hue/Saturation.

Critique and analyse with your peers what looks best:

The first edit is also the best in these photographs. It has the most contrast and the most balanced among the two images. The last image looks too washed out.

Compare to the original and make notes.

The original photo is just basic but when I edit them it makes it stand out more.

pompeii

 The book that I read about Pompeii, has this disaster that happened when Vesuvius erupted. Several towns had disappeared including Herculaneum, Pompeii, Stabiae, Oplontis, and Taurania. Where Pompeii had once stood only the tops of the buildings still standing rose above the ashes.

There was ash on top of the houses after the eruption
