Diptych Selectively Toned

For my final project in my printing class we had to produce a Diptych, which is two photographs presented next to each other that are connected in some way. I also had to selectively tone the two photographs. I chose to convert the photos to black and white, and keep the nail polish, and the lining and the bow on the shoes in color. I posed for these photographs myself to show a part of me. This is my favorite pair of shoes because they are so different and so fun.

Her Favorite Mistake

Infrared

In my printing class we had to choose a special effect capture with film and create it on digital photographs in photoshop. In high school I did a project with Infrared film and fell in love with it so I decided to convert some photos over to infrared. Infrared is a light spectrum that is not visible to the human eye. I generally turns blues to black, makes liquid a very gray color, is very grainy, and has glowing highlights. My favorite part is how grainy the photo becomes.

Cell Phone

This photo was taken with my cell phone. I was driving home one day and noticed black smoke in the air and decided to try to find it. Police cars were racing past me so I followed them to find the Goodwill Trailor in the King Sooper's parking lot located at 120th and Colorado Blvd. on fire.
