Different Perspective: Culture





I took these pictures of the pier at Old Orchard Beach. The beach is an aspect of Maine culture. I added a bit of contrast and subtracted a bit of saturation to give a relaxed mood. The third picture down is my favorite because it is of the whole pier, and I like the deep depth of field. The last one would be my favorite if it did not have the people walking in it.

Different Perspective: Abstract




I took these pictures outside my house. I like the shape and texture of this light and I thought it would make a good abstract photograph. I sharpened the image a bit and added some contrast to the dull lighting. I like the compositions and the light saturation.

Mobility: Different Perspectives







I took these pictures at the town garage. I liked the scenic background and the shapes the trucks had so I chose to take some photographs for mobility/transportation. The last two are my favorites because they show the ground below the trucks with tire marks which I thought emphasized the theme. Also the composition is good in the pictures and the shine from the truck add reflections and glares.

Montage: Urban Landscape

Different Perspective: Aged




I took these pictures at the town garage. I saw good angles created by the cylinders and diagonally placed wood. This image shows a lot of shapes and dimentions. I added a bit of sharpness and contrast to make the shapes stand out.

Water Reflection

This was taken in Portland. I like the reflection of the trees on the water and the composition of the image. I added some saturation and sharpness to enhance the image.

Abstract

This is a picture of shattered glass on pavement. I took it on my phone so it does not have as good quality as it could of, but I like how the light hits the glass. I added a bit of contrast and some blue hue to the image to make it standout.
