EVALUATION

Well guys i have finished my assignments I just need to write an evaluation on it which i am doing right now when i started this assignment i started taking pictures with a SLR camera i thought that the course is going to be easy so i carried on taking photos and after a 2 months Richard gave us a task to do for writing well as usual which everyone knows that i am a slow writer i took time on it when Richard gave us another task at the time when i was doing my first one before that then i though that the assignment is not going to be really easy so i started to do my work as fast as i can until eventually I did it i caught up with the tasks and i stated to do my work before the deadlines the thing that i hate about this is the loosing of the work which is on line through blogger i still lose it but sometimes i can get it recovered or i have to do it all over again when i am doing that in the process i am telling my self to keep the blogger tidy after i am done, but when ever i am done with it it slips out of my mind and i forget about it and when ever i do some work on blogger this happens every time so i just ignore this situation but anyway i had my ups and downs in the course i try to finish my course in time when i was doing my work i was thinking that i would be able to pass it but i have been told to aim for a merit or you will not be able to pass this course and go to level three so i put my head down after that in class even at home. For the parts which where long like the the essays of conflict and photography is art i did those at home to save time for class and do the easy work like editing and writing about how i edited the photo and searching for photographers and writing about them and comparing my work with there work so basically that actually saved me allot of time to print off and hand in my work. For my other parts of my work i am not sure if i can get get a distinction with those work but i am sure that i will get a merit with that work because the work is detailed what i mean by that is that in the work it talks about everything in it. Now i have to try and put as much as details in my work as possible for me so i can get a higher mark i was trying to aim for a merit but i have been told to aim for a higher mark for distinction so i tried hard but i could not think of anything and from where i think i will only get a merit in this course

experimental photography HDRI

HDRI

This is a photo of a logo on an Audi R8 petrol gauge cover when i was taking the photo i was making sure that the picture does not get messed trust me it messed up in the first shot i was angry when that happened i was setting the the camera to make the shot better it got better what a relief i though it was never going to get fixed but then i got over it and the shot was done and then i carried on what i see in the picture is sharpness more brightness the picture has alot of light in it it is sick how it is been taken to. The thing that i likes about this photo is the quality of it this is the photo that has the best in it well as how some people would say it it is sick although it was a blast when i went to take the pictures of all the cars and i even had some people come with me as well. The thing that i hate about this photo is when i was editing it trying to get rid of the extra bits in it because it was ruining the photo i had bits of problems with it i had to make sure i get the right colour to get rid of the  parts that i don't want i had to use the brush tool which was obvioslly on the left to give it the right colour i had to use the eyedrop tool and then use the brush tool to colour it in in the right places and you can see the results in it how illusionised it is you can't even tell if it is editted.      

in this photo you can see that it is a back of an Audi R8 when i was taking the photo i was making sure that the other car does not come in the photo but when i took the photo i lost balance and did not notice that the car has came in the photo so i carried on with it anyway and then when i came back to college in was really angry when i saw that the car was there so i was going to photo shop it out but i forget about it. The thing that i like about about the photo is the quality how the picture is bright and it is standing out it is my favourite picture i was thinking of putting it in my room as well but unfortunately i cannot print it out at my house. The thing that i hate about this photo is the fact that you cannot get rid of the light on the left but i had to carry on with it and in the photo i had to fix the photos light of it but when i do it to much it gets to bright from the left so i had to keep it normal. The reason why i choose this photo is because the photo was the only one that was able to get Photoshoped and turned into HDRfor this photo i had to make sure that i did not ruin it so i used the exposure level in photoshop to get rid of the light on the right but it got rid of the light to much so i put it back to normal so it did not work and for the sharpness i could'nt find the options for that but i did find the options for sharpening the picture which made it look even more ridiculus so i had to put it back to normal.     

the reason why i choose this photo is because this was the only picture that was standing out from the others so i choose this photo and put it in the third position the reason why i put this in the third position is because i wanted this picture to be there and not anywhere else well as you can see that i am getting allot of progress in this assignment i was going to finish my work before but i could not get time so i did it now well wish me best of luck. The thing that i like about the photo is the brightness on this photo it is really good i tried to keep the brightness of the photo low so it does not get over exposed well as you can see the result it blew me away as well when i saw it to. The thing that i hate about this photo is the light  because of it yeah the cars tire kept coming low in light so i had to use this picture in HDR. The tools that i used in this photo is the levels tool to give it a little light an Unsharp tool to make turn it in to HDR as you can see the results are good but unfourtunatley i could not get rid of the light in the photo i tried everything i can so i can get a good photo but i could not.          

the reason why i choose this picture is because it stands out it is individual and in it there is allot of details you probably be thinking right now that why i put it in the last position there is a reason for that, well i did that because you know how allot of people say save the best for last some of you probably got it by now and some of you don't so that is why i am going to explain it to you now i have choose this picture last because i think it is the best one and i think i should put it in the last position well what would you expect i can't do better then this..The reason why i like this photo is because of the quality it is the best one out of all of them and you can see every detail in it and it is clear the reason why i said looks is because i like these kinds of pictures i like how the picture has meaning to it is better than the others. The tools that i used to make this picture look like this are the levels tool to make the picture stand out so we can see it properly the Unsharp tool so it can get the HDR effect in it so it would be a good photo the result well you can see it for yourself what the results are in this photo i did not need to get rid of the light it got dim a bit on that day and i got a really good photo to thanks to the light. 


i have finally finished my assignment i hope i get the best out of my tutor wish me best of luck

contextual influence

Freedom
Freedom is like a friend a lot of people are free even god gave free will to people he does not control people he only judges what people do with their life and gives them punishment in the world for what they deserve a lot of people do not care if that happens so what I was saying about freedom when someone does something no one can stop them from doing it they can do anything they want no one can control anyone to do something but you can control yourself or stop yourself from doing something bad or good.
When someone is trying to have a fight with you then you have freedom of not fighting him or you can hit him if you want which is freedom when you are getting married and you want to get married to someone else you like then you have the freedom of telling your parents that they want to they have the freedom of it if you want hallal food and you are in a prison you have the freedom of it to ask for it they will have to give you hallal food if they don't then they are going against your right of freedom
You have the freedom of going outside and doing anything going anywhere you want you can you can go to the shop without someone stopping you no one can control how you think you can think whatever you want you can buy anything you want without anyone’s concern no one can stop you from buying anything you have the freedom of buying anything you are free from everything you will not be stopped from anything you will not be stopped from going to the other side of the bridge you are free from everything.
What i think about freedom is that if we did not have freedom then it would be like the world war back in the days I am glad that we have freedom from everything because we would have been stopped from everything then the world could have been a different place without freedom we would not even have confidence in us there would have been less people having to go outside and there would have been war as well without freedom  people won’t be able to stand up for their rights if there was not any freedom  these are the good facts about freedom
The bad fact about freedom is that a lot of old people have been suffering because children have been given  the freedom to do anything they want and other children who are not strong enough from the inside they get bullied because of it but whenever they try to do something it does not get further from there and it gets worst it is same for the girls as well the ones which do not have confidence get bullied as well and the same situations is with them they don’t get listened to either  so some people are taking advantage of freedom and they use it against other people

final 4 images experimental and final image


This image that i took in a showroom just around the corner in the torque project was an interesting shot at first when i took the shot it was ok but because of the light on the right i was really annoyed of it well what can you expect it was a bad shot after all but then i took another one it came out like this it was better than the last one but the light on the right was not gone so i came up with an idea that i will use it for single strobe instead so i went in photoshop to find a way to get rid of the light but i could not find any tool at all that made me even mad so instead of that i used the light and make the picture better by using it in single strobe which made it even interesting that worked and the result well you can see for yourself what the result is and i even used single strobe hope my tutor gives me a good mark for it i am not sure if photoshopping it is allowed or not but i will still go with it. The idea from my point of view i think that it was a great one. The tools that i used in this photo is the levels and brightness i tried not to do it too much so it i can see the car perfectly. The thing i liked about the photo is the light depending on the photo type single strobe i think that it is a good choice for it which you can see for yourself that the light is low in it and you can see one side of the car in it .  The thing that i hate about the photo is that the photo did not get taken properly i just hated it when the photo did not come how i wanted and i had to take it multiple times to get the right one so instead i used it for a single strobe for my assignment which i think was a great idea from my point of view       





The image that i took in the showroom was a good shot and i turned it into a silhouette because it was the only one that was close to one. When i was taking the picture i thought that i would be taking a good photo but the light keeps on coming low i was a bit annoyed with that but then it came to me that i could make it a silhouette then i carried on with the photo what i think about the image is that it is a good one and the techniques i used on it where the levels and brightness i guess that it was a good attempt to do that the thing that i like about this photo is they way it was taken i like the style of taking it the thing that i don't like about the image is the edges in it the reason why i couldn't fix that is because i was in a hurry when i was editing the image because the deadline date was near and because of that i got panicked and i had to speed things up and a few things were left like bits and pieces 
    



This image was taken in the showroom i tried to take it without the light but the light was too bright so i used photoshop to change the light in it in other versions of this image but in this image i used backlighting which you can see that the background is lighter than the car well you can see that the backlighting in the photo is not too good not too bad but perfect allot of people would agree to this because i cannot use a photo from google images which is a big woop and bad which is really tense but this is called education and this is the thing that i like about it. The thing that i like about the photo is the technique used in it and the photo has no edges which makes it my favorite one i like pictures with no edges in them and they are perfect i even like photo which has good light in them and have meaning in them well you get the picture. the thing that i hate in this picture is the back of the car it is more darker than the front it is because of the light which is coming from the outside and it is hitting only one side of the car but it is not hitting the other side which makes the other side of the car more darker and this is the reason why this picture is the one that i wasted more time on when i was taking it i had to take 7 shots to get a good one i kept 3 good ones went back to college and choose the best one from them 3 and then i used photoshop to make the image dark  which came out like this the results well you can see them in front of you .the techniques that i used are the levels for levels i had to find the right percentage the higher i go the more it the light gets low the lower i go the more the light gets high the brightness which helped me in getting the images light low for the background and contrast tools which helped to make the image darker.  
this is my final i know i know i should not take a photo of from online but i had to because i could not find a photo that everyone knew that i could make it digitally manipulated so it looks like that i edited it in this photo i used the techniques from the photoshop and i cropped the two cars and put them on one side and the other on the other to make it look like that the photos are a part of the movie i had to put down the brightness and level of the photos to manipulate it in the photo the reason why i choose this photo as my final photo is because this is my masterpiece it is the best editing i have done since i started using photoshop i mean look at it can you actually tell that there is a mini cooper behind the aston martins seriously though don't you think that it is the best photo the thing that i like about the photo is the way it has been edited the aston martins lined up on each sides and they are properly adjusted and we cannot tell if the coopers are behind them the thing that i hate about this picture is the little bit of detail left on the aston martin on the right as you can see that the headlight on the left has been cut out a bit which makes a lot of difference to me because that is a mistake to me i like to keep things tidy and neat so that it does not look embarrassing for me  



experimental photography task 2

Single Strobe


This image that i took in a showroom just around the corner in the torque project was an interesting shot at first when i took the shot it was ok but because of the light on the right i was really annoyed of it well what can you expect it was a bad shot after all but then i took another one it came out like this it was better than the last one but the light on the right was not gone so i came up with an idea that i will use it for single strobe instead so i went in photoshop to find a way to get rid of the light but i could not find any tool at all that made me even mad so instead of that i used the light and make the picture better by using it in single strobe which made it even interesting that worked and the result well you can see for yourself what the result is and i even used single strobe hope my tutor gives me a good mark for it i am not sure if photoshopping it is allowed or not but i will still go with it.

Silhouette 



this is photo taken in a car showroom just 10 minutes away from my college i photoshoped the car and made it into a silhouette by turning down the brightness of it using levels (ctrl L) when i was editing it i was not sure if this would be alright for a silhouette so i did it anyway hoping for the best the thing that i like about this picture is the shape of the car when i started on it when i done it it was perfect for a silhouette the thing that i hate about this picture is the details of the sides i was in such a hurry to complete this assignment that i forgot to get rid of the extra bits like the pointy sides next to the rear view mirror sticking out next to the bonnet. i asked people around in my class they told me it is a good picture and said it looks like someone was in a hurry when they where cropping the picture i the way i got the white background was by cropping the car and then i copied the car and i opened a new photoshop blank page and then i made sure that it is on that page because if it is not then the car would not appear when you do that the car will appear on the page and after that make sure you get rid of the pointy bits to make it look perfect well i didn't because i was in a hurry to finish it after when you have done that just adjust it to the size you want it by transform it to do that you have to click on edit on the top left corner of the screen go all the way down and just keep going up until you find it click on it and you will be able to change the size of the car just make sure you have exited the transform you can do that by double clicking the car when you have done that you can then change it so a silhouette by pressing the keyboard buttons (ctrl L)     

Backlighting



this photo was taken near my college in a a showroom which was photo shopped i used the levels tool which as you can see that the car is darkened and the background is light and the background is the one which brings the picture out more and using levels the way i did that was by clicking (ctrl L) which as you can see the photo is darkened asusual i was going to use it in sillhouete but the photo was not perfect enough for it well i will just come up straight i did not like it so i used this photo for a backlighting instead. The reason why i choose this picture is because this picture suits the light in this photo and the car gets darken automatically the thing what i like about this photo is the lighting in the photo i like how it has been edited how the back light has been changed when i edited it and the you can see a bit of the car the thing that i don't like about the picture is the backside of the picture you can't see the backside of the car perfectly you get i had to do this picture in a hurry because i did not have enough time i had to do it fast


high key


this is a photo of a Lamborghini gallardo it was taken near my college about approximately 11.45 and i used Photoshop to make it look high key for my project i was in a hurry when i was doing it because i had no time left that is why so i just did what could be done as you can see that the picture is high in key I was going to use the photo in a HDR but it was not getting effected a bit so instead I used it in the high key which helped allot to me i am actually close to finishing my assignment the reason why i choose this picture because this was the only picture that could be used for high key photo to make it high key i used Photoshop i used the levels key for the light to go up and it did not look like how i wanted so i used exposure instead and the results were what i wanted so i work on it then i flattened the image when i was done with it i used the edit button on the top left corner and then i went down to look for flatten image then i clicked on it to make it capable of being saved. the way i found out about this is by practising and looking through things in Photoshop i have gotten a lot of experience in Photoshop by using my time in it.
