White Balance Assignment

For this assignment I adjusted the white balance depending on the lighting. In darker light/shadows I adjusted the white balance so the photo didn't turn out so blue. In incandescent lighting I changed the white balance so the whites didn't look so yellow/orange.

 To delete the words from the Gatorade I used the Clone Stamp tool in photoshop to move the pixels of one area the picture over the words.
 To make this picture a vignette, I used a black Color Mask in Photoshop. I also made the colors brighter by adjusting the shadows and enhancing the saturation.

A Day in the Life of a Hipster


Collage:

 For this assignment, I took photos of typical hipster things. I focused on adjusting my ISO settings from a range from 80 to 400 depending on the lighting. For outdoor or sunny settings, the ISO was about 80. For pictures where I only had indoor lighting during the night, I used a 400 ISO since that's the highest setting available.
