Riply!

Well, I actually posted something. Anyway, this first image is one of my sister's dog, Ripley. Not my favorite dog, but a great poser. I was laying on my mom's bed watching a movie, and she kinda 'threw' this blue ball at me. So, I grabbed it and she jumped on the bed. Since I had my camera, I decided to take her picture for my sis. I was aiming to get a picture to look like she was a person staring into the camera. It didn't work that well, but the lighting turned out to look really cool. It was by accident really. I was using the flash, because it was just easier than trying to get her to stay still long enough for a slow shutter speed, and I was holding her blue ball in front of the flash without realizing it, and took the picture, so the light came out to look like a honeycomb, Since that is what her ball looks like. The fact that I got it on her nose was cool. I tried to do it again, but it didn't look that great. The next picture is of Ripley with her honeycomb ball. I like this one, even though her eyes aren't in focus, but her nose is and you really focus more on the ball and not her eyes. And, the last picture is one of Rip again with her ball. I like this one, because you see just how much she loves to chew on that ball. She also looks kinda scary. =p Maybe not. Again, her nose is in more focus than her eyes, but again, you focus more on the ball and her teeth. And they aren't that out of focus, anyways.

YES! I knew you could take photos and post them. Keep doing it now. Keep working in class on photo related stuff!

Be sure to post your before images as well. I want to see what you shot as well as the final product. I like these images, it is good that you got down on the level of the dog, really adds to the image.

I want to see more of YOUR work. Your own style, combine photos with your photoshop skills. You have amazing photoshop skills, show them on here. Take some photos as the base and build up off of it.
