Inspiration

One of my assignments this week is to make a photo collage for my Photoshop class (we learned about layers this week). Of course, I'm supposed to use my own images. I had some ideas in my head, but wasn't sure how or what to do exactly. I ended up going out into my backyard and snapping some pictures, just so I had something to start playing with. The gate was the first collage I made and the flower was second. I'm not quite sure what I think yet, or which one I will submit. This is my first attempt at anything like this on Photoshop. Let me know what you think.

contrast of hue

This is an image I turned in for my assignment last week while I was in Arlington. Debb, Jenny and I went to the hospital to see all of Debb's gorgeous baby pictures. I was looking for something that would fit the criteria of the assignment and this just fell into my lap. The assignment was to create a photo that utilized contrast of hue, while paying attention to the picture plane. Creating color combinations of pure hues that either come forward or recede, causing activation of the picture plane. I love how this image turned out, and apparently so did my professor! :)
