John Sexton

For my project, I decided to do my work on John Sexton.  He is one of the most widely known contemporary black and white landscape photographer and educator.  His works demonstrate technical and artistic expertise, which has a very distinctive feel.  Sexton's subjects are transformed into images of tranquility, wonder, and mystery.
 I love this picture, the way he took the picture it's like field of depth.  I like how it looks like it has fog in the picture.
                 I really like Sexton's work of nature's natural beauty.  He captures its perspective so well.  And all the intricate details that you see in the photograph it just makes the picture so neat.
This photograph is also very neat.  You see the different lines and how smooth they are.  It makes the picture look really cool.  I just love black and white pictures, I think it shows so much detail.

This is a modified picture of my boyfriend. What I did was changed the contrast of the colors to brighten things up. I also cropped the picture a little bit so that there was not so much of the extra space. I also made it so that it focused more on just him.

This is a picture that I took of my boyfriend while he was messing around with his phone. As you can tell the lighting is really dark, and it is really hard to see the background objects and the main person.

This is my powerpoint logo. I took this picture of a coral reef from my cousins salt water fish tank. I love how it has the hint of neon green color on the reef. What I did was I added a caption to the logo by inserting some text. I also adjusted the brightness and contrast of the picture to make the green stand out just a little more.

This is a flower I took outside a building. I used depth of field on this picture by adjusting the shutter and apertures settings to make it blurred in the background and focus on the one flower.

In this picture I decided to crop the flower and have just the individual flower as the main focus of the picture. I felt it did not need all the extra space on the outside edges. By cropping this picture it draws your eyes to the vibrate colors of the flower and allows you to see all the little details it entitles.

This is my original picture that I had enhanced the colors from. As you can see the colors are dark and hard to define the structures

This picture was taken from unit 1, in the original picture I thought the picture looked just a little dark, so I decided to lighten this picture just a little bit so you can really see the colors of the leaves and water. How I enhanced the picture was by adjusting the contrast and the tone of the picture. Which it allowed more colors to show up and made it look more like a pretty scenery.
