Software version 4.1.2
App: Pixlr Express
I took advantage of the recent warm
weather and shot my photographs outdoors because I love how the natural
sunlight appears in photographs. While
looking for things to photograph, I sought out spaces that have contributed to
my past. The majority of my photographs have some
sort of personal connection to me and through my choice of framing, angles, and
filters, I hoped that the viewers would be able to understand this.
Similar to
past weeks, I photographed the various spaces and/or subjects using the standard
camera app that comes with the phone. Next,
I utilized a few different apps to edit my photographs, but for this specific
one I used an app that I have used in the past called Pixlr. The bright sunlight combined with the colors
of the trees and bridge created vibrant colors in the photograph. As a result, I thought it was important to
make the colors appear duller, so I used a filter within the “too old” effects
called “agatha.” This filter changes the
photograph to black and white, but I only wanted to adjust the colors slightly
so I used the fade option and applied the number 38. Lastly, I gave the photograph a vintage feel
by using an overlay technique called “worn.”
I strove to
convey a sense of time in my photographs.
I feel as though I captured a successful photograph if the viewer
recognized an emotional significance in the photograph and was able to relate
to it.
