Before and After.

About Carleton Watkins:

Time Period - 1829-1916

Location: California

Subjects: Nature

What makes the photographer unique?: The photos he took were of nature and it had a lot of depth to them.

My view: 

I chose this photographer because I like to look at photos of nature and though his looked very nice.

He inspired to go out and look at the beauty of nature. As the project went on, my appreciation of nature grew. 

Carleton Watkins Photo Examples.

He has wide ranges of nature photos that have a sepia tone with high contrast so I tried to emulate that in my editing.

Composition Review three rules

Before and After.

This crop shows my three rules of depth, leading lines, and rule of thirds.

Link to my three rules: 

For the unhealed wounds photos, the one that demonstrates my rules the best is photo #1. While the photo is does not utilize rule of thirds as much, it illustrates leading lines and depth the best out of the 12. 

10/17 Portrait Camera Raw edit

Flower picture taken next to the window by the office. In Camera raw I added contrast so the background was alot darker to highlight the flowers much better in the photo. To add even more focus on the flowers, I made the red colors more saturated and the the greens less saturated.
