Greek Myth- Nyx

This represents the goddess of Night, Nyx. This is my mom, and I had her sit by the rocks and set the long exposure on my camera to 30 seconds. I like it a lot because the stars really stand out and you can tell it's Night but it's also light out and you can see "nyx's face." I had her gaze up at the sky because it looks like she's observing the night sky, as she brought it on.

Greek Myth- Athena

My greek myth was athena. In the story, Athena was said to be the guarder of the city because she planted the first olive tree, and the people respected her for that. I had her stand in front of the city to represent that, and in front of the water to represent Poseidan because she had fights with poseidan. She was also an expert at spinning and weaving, and the necklace represents weaving. Athena was also said to be very pure and innocent, so the white dress represents that.

Modern to Antique- Gavin


This is my antique photo. Overall I think it looks like an antique compared to how it looked before in color. To get this effect, we used the gaussian blur, filters and the paintbrush.

Planet-time

This is my planet. I took this during the sunset by my house. I rotated it so it would look smoother and you wouldn't be able to tell where the line was where they connected.

St. Pattys


This is my St. Patty's photo. I really like the raindrops on the plants, it adds detail and uniqueness. I desaturated the background and then erased the green plants so they stood out, and then i did the lomo effect on it.

PORTRAIT- Vanessa

This is Vanessa. I thought it would be an interesting point of view when it's close to her face and her hair is in front. It also explains her personality a bit because she is always happy and crazy and this photo explains it somewhat. I also dodged her eyes and changed the hue a bit so they would pop out more.
