Fine Art Template

Purple and Yellow Flower: BYU-Idaho Campus Gardens; 6:11 p.m.; 9/28/09; f 2.8; 1/60; Kodak Z730; Macro



Field: East 7th South, Rexburg; 5:47 p.m.; 9/16/09; f 5.6; 1/800; Sony DSC-47



This is an easy way to put a professional touch on your photos. I created a template in Photoshop using black rectangles and the clipping mask tool. It is a really simple technique but turns out great.

Top: Idaho Falls, Idaho: 2:12 p.m.; 11/14/09; f 3.4; 1/60; Kodak Z730



Bottom: Idaho Falls, Idaho: 2:14 p.m.; 11/14/09; f 4.0; 1/15; Kodak Z730


I had the idea of making my friend look like she was just made of frames. I put different pictures of the top frame and the bottom frame to give her an abstract feel. I like how she is looking at her legs and how her arms are coming out of the picture frame. It makes it look like there are frames of her but she comes out of them too.

This was a challenge for me. I couldn't think of what to do for it all week. One of my roommates had oreos out on the table and I thought they could look cool if I tried to make them tires on my car. I wanted the oreos to make the car look like it was all souped up like some trucks are, it turned out looking pretty big.

Panoramic

Panoramic Train

The photomerge tool in Photoshop is so easy to use. The program blends the pictures for you and they end up looking wonderful after they are blended. I liked the somewhat skewed perspective of this panoramic. You can see the train coming and going as well as the loading dock. This was a fun week.

A Photo a Day Layout

This is the template I created in Photoshop




The template with the pictures I took this week.


I really liked creating the template this week. I have always enjoyed scrapbooking so this was a fun way to create a layout. After this assignment, I am looking forward to putting my photobook together.

I really like all of the shots that I took this week, they don't really follow a theme so it is strange for me to put them all on one page. Some days I really struggled with what to take a picture of and others I just walked by something that looked fun. This was a fun week of photography.
