Assignment #3 - High Key/ Low Key

This is a picture of some eggs in front of a white towel on a white plate. I like how even though the towel and the eggs are white there is still a difference between them. I also liked how there is a highlight on the egg to the left, I thought it was cool. I didn't have to change this picture as much as I usually change pictures. I changed the exposure up a little and added some black.





When I first was taking this picture I didn't think I'd like it one bit, but after seeing it I actually liked it and it had pretty good exposure! All I had to do was put the black slider up by 2 and it looks pretty good. I'm glad the black background worked out too, I was worried how it would look after the other black background didn't work on my picture of my boots.

High Key/ Low Key

This is the original picture of a jar of mayo on the floor of the grocery store.


This is after I changed this picture. I like this picture and I don't know why, but I made it lighter and made the blacks darker. I plan on taking some more pictures tonight and will probably like them more than this one.

I changed the exposure just a tinsy bit. Then I changed the blacks so it didn't look so dull and gray, but when I did this I lost my highlights that I liked in the orignal. So to fix this I changed the fill light which brought some of that highlight and white back into the picture.

Assignment #2

I got a pretty good exposure, but I changed the exposure a little bit, and then changed the blacks and the fill light, because I like pictures that have more contrast.
