Sand Dunes


This was just for fun, not really a project for my class.  No classes till Feb 7 or somewhere around there. 
I made this for a friend with some of that extra poster paper we had from our last project. Probably took a half an hour to make and an hour to print. God damn printers! I never understand them.  I did this all on illustrator which I'm very proud of  because I would choose photoshop any day over illustrator but I need the practice and it didn't come out half bad.

Autumn Color War

Long exposure and movement of the camera.  These were some bushes and b the motion of the leaves you can guess how I moved the camera. I believe it was like a 1 sec exposure.  I love how it ended up looking like long grass.
Low depth of field which really turned out beautifully.  The colors in the background blend well together as blurry objects rather than detailed.
For one the white balance worked well.  This was a sunny white balance giving the atmosphere a warmer atmosphere.  I don't know about you but this picture makes me want to continue that walk down yonder.
Long exposure again and a horizontal movement of the camera.  Started the picture with some golden leaves then moved to the left towards the bushes and creek in the background.  I love how the warm colors overpower and surround the cooler colors in the bottom left corner.  Fall is my favorite season and it sure was good while it lasted.
