Action!

Lights, Camera...this! In an unlikely combo of careful set-up and pure luck, my dog Farley is trying to eat this airborne snow I tossed in front of me. The light happen to hit the snow at just the right angle as I shot that it really made both the snow and Farley pop out:

Landscape

Tragedy! During this assignment my camera was accidentally popped open while fiddling with it (this is before I actually had the sense to ask how to use it properly). That being the case, I used what salvageable photos I could and with this particular picture the exposure to light ended up creating some cool effects that otherwise wouldn't have been present (the blue and darkness of the trees was my meddling but the shape and shadows are natural to the film):

Portraits

This one is actually a picture of my pet parrot named Kiwi (she's actually green when she hasn't been photoshop edited) that I had actually taken for the portrait assignment but this version of it is one I made during our Popart class project.

Elements of Photography

These were a pair of photos that I used for the first assignment of the year (Elements of Photography) and obviously edited them rather heavily with Photoshop:



Abstract

Among a collection of others, this is a picture that particularly stood out to me from the photos I took for the abstract class project. It actually started with my friend sticking his hand into the otherwise undisturbed snow and unrecommended I take a picture of it:

Facetek

A photoshop project I worked on between class work, mind you these aren't my pictures that I used to make this but I figured it'd be cool to share it anyway:
