Written Reflection
Being in Photojournalism has taught me a lot. I've learned the history of cameras and journalism. I've aquirred skills that help me take good photos like correct lighting and positioning. I've learned how to use essential skills in photoshop that will help me enhance my pictures and make them better. Learning about exposure and ISO has helped me better understand how cameras work with different environments. Doing the different projects using different aspects of photography has taught me how to use each tool correctly. Overall Photojournalism has taught me a lot of things that I wouldn't know now if i hadn't taken the class. i will use all of these tools in the future to help better my photography as a whole.
Photoshop #1
To create this picture I used the quick selection tool and took Yara from her original picture and adjusted her size to fit the brick wall behind her.
Photoshop #2
To create this picture I focused on lighting and exposure to make the photo brighter and to highlight the subjects' face and shadow.
Photoshop #3
To create this photo I used the quick selection tool to select the flower and enhance the color then select the background to make it black and white .
