Trolley Pictures

Glow Sticks

For this project, we went as a class to the TV studio and turned off all of the lights so it was pitch black. We put the cameras on TV mode and set the shutter speed at 10 seconds. Then, we drew designs with the glow sticks and because the shutter speeds were so low, they caught the shapes. After I uploaded, I edited them in photoshop. I increased the lighting, contrast, and levels.

Stained Glass

At first, these pictures were not symmetrical and had bad lighting. I used Photoshop to edit them. To fix the symmetry problem, I used guides to mark horizonal and vertical lines and distorted the images. After that, I adjusted the lighting, contrast, and levels by using the levels panel, the brightness/contrast panel, and the dodge and burn tool.
