Natural Light Lab  F 5.6, 1/25 ISO -100 Finding someone to photograph has been my toughest challenge so far with Photography. I managed to capture this photograph with luck because working with children is a really tough job. I feel I managed to capture the 45 degree natural light photograph really well here because we can see the shadow on the subjects face. 90 Degree indoor natural light. I felt this photograph captured the  90 degree natural light really well. There's a soft light on the side on the subjects face, while the other side has a shadow.  This was a really tricky photograph to capture because my sister wouldn't stay still.  F 5.6, 1/25 ISO 100, This is another 90 degree natural light photograph. I feel this captured the technique quite well despite my little sister on the verge of crying😂. I really like how the grey wall adds some depth to the portrait.  F5.6, 1/25 ISO100  This doesn't show the techniques needed for this lab, I just liked thi...

This was a fun exercise to do, I had some difficulty trying to "select and mask" the image . Whenever I did the image would change in a different way than how the tutorial showed . I managed to eventually fix it and everything else worked out just fine. This Ballerina image was a little bit difficult because although I knew what to do with the image, photoshop wasn't co-operating and it kept going wrong. on the ballerinas foot pointing downwards I edited it a little bit too much, I finally got Photoshop to work so I didn't want to fidget about too much in case something went wrong again. This was my favourite one to do. Its So beautiful and has a fantasy/magical feel to it. I had no issues with this one. The waterfall in the tree trunk is so gorgeous and calming to look at. I learned some new techniques in this exercise . It was fun and simple. I enjoyed this exercise a lot. This is also one of my favourites . I find it so calming and beautiful to look at. It was fair...

  Image Production: Liberty  For this task we had to complete this jigsaw in photoshop. I quite enjoyed this task although I wasn't able to get rid of the white spaces and bring the pieces closer together.  It was a nice way to ease in and learn some more skills in photoshop. John                                 This was an interesting task because we were able to create 3 different faces from one mans picture. It was a short task but still enjoyable. Hawaii Postcard   This took the longest to finish but the outcome is so worth it. It felt really good to learn all these new skills and create a beautiful postcard.  This has been my favourite task so far lets see what else I will be able to create soon.

 Semester 2:  01/02/2021             Image Production For task 1 I found it quite simple to use photoshop and enjoyable. I've used photoshop previously in semester 1 but never fully understood the functionalities of the programme. Im looking forward to delving deeper and gaining even more skills from it. Ex3: I was unable to complete the second exercise. I had tried to do it but for some reason adobe bridge wasn't co-operating and the files just weren't working for me. I couldn't get the photo from photoshop into adobe bridge with the instructions from the book so I had tried alternate ways and managed to get the photograph onto adobe bridge but the rest of the instructions didn't work out for me.
