A Look Into Me
This picture depicts things that I think represent hobbies that i like to do as well as what defines me. The three layered photos show different parts of my personality. The sunset photo was taken on a walk that I took in a nature area by my house. I take these walks frequently to clear my head and to have time for myself, its one of my favorite activities. The flowers were also from one of these walks and represent my love for nature. The buildings are the Renaissance Center in Detroit. Detroit was a big part of my childhood because of family connections and is definitely one of my happy places. "A Look Into Me" depicts different aspects of my life and personality.
Over this trimester I have developed how I take pictures and advanced my knowledge on editing pictures. Now I have a lot of new skills in photoshop and have learned how to create illusions and make more visually appealing photographs. When it comes to taking pictures I have developed my own sense of style in terms of subject and angle. I also have picked up a few tips and tricks on what to include and not to include in a picture, such as cars, sidewalks, and signs. I think my pictures have really grown since the beginning and I like how i now use color contrast, positioning, and experimentation in my pictures.
My double exposure has a lot of more interesting and advanced aspects, reflecting my growth in photography. Compared to my first selfie my double exposure only uses one photo which is a lot less visually overwhelming. I also used a more high quality picture and the colors blend a lot more. I used much more advanced technique, while in the first one required very basic skill.
