Title: Black Cow
Camera: Canon EOS Rebel T1i
Date: 9 May 2010 7:15 p.m.
Location: Ucon, ID
Aperture: f/5.6
Shutter Speed: 1/500 sec

This shot did not turn out so well, it was darker than what it really looked like. I think it would have been better if I was on the shutter speed priority to let in more light. So I brought this image into Adobe Photoshop CS4, unlocked the layer, made an adjustable layer to change the RGB curve. Then I masked out some of the edges of where the fence post is located.

Edited Title: Clear Black Cow


Title: Sunshine Yellow
Camera: Canon EOS Rebel T1i
Date: 8 May 2010 8:13 a.m.
Location: Rexburg, ID (BYU-Idaho Campus)
Aperture: f/9
Shutter Speed: 1/40 sec

This picture I "converted to smart filter" within Adobe Photoshop CS4. I looked through the filter gallery, and decided on the Poster Edges filter. It came up with a free mask, so I masked out the yellow flower head so the rest of the picture is posterized.

Edited title: Cartoon Yellow Sunshine

That's a pretty useful adjustment you use with the picture of the cow. And the flower looks really cool.

Good edit to the cow. The lighting was really too dark. The edit on the flower is interesting and looks really good. It adds a good point of focus for the flower.

The edit to the cow was really great. You have definitely learned a lot that will come in so handy further on in the semester! Your flower edit was also very interesting. I like how you masked out the flower so that it was still soft and pretty with a rougher filter on the background.

I really like the way the flower turned out with the poster filter. It does look cartoonish in a way! You also did a great job lightening the shot of the cow. Some of my shots were underexposed too and you did a good job!

Hey does your camera shoot in the RAW format? Have you ever heard of camera raw from adobe? it is a program inside adoobe bridge and comes with photoshop. It lets you use all the data recorded on the camera from a raw image file. It does great for lighting a dark image or darkening a light image. It doesn't replace photoshop but it is great for fixing things that are across the whole picture while photoshop is amazing for tweeking parts of an image.
