Kati Keller Recipes 2- Color/ Passion



Hey guy, This assignment was interesting and I felt like I got to really share myself with you from this assignment.  The phone I use to take this photo was the Samsung Galaxy S4 with Android version 4.4.2 KitKat. The app I used to capture and edit these photos was Snapseed version 1.6.0.



The first photo is the POW. I love volleyball and play once a week in a league.  For this photo I had to wait until people were not playing. This helped me with timing a photo. I wanted to do it in the gym because I knew the lighting would be bright. I ended up laying on the ground crawling after a ball that kept rolling. I didn't notice the people in the background of the photo until after I took it. I messed around with the blur filter in the app and I enjoyed how it looked so I ended up keeping it blurred around the object. I put the 'drama 2' filter on it made the colors really stand out from the black. After that I raised the saturating a little so the background wasn't too dark.

The next photo is of my crayons. I like to draw and color on occasions and being a business major it is very refreshing. It was a new box that I had just opened a few days before the photo. I did not arrange the crayons in any order for this photo. I did put them by my window to gather any light there was on the overcast day. In the drama editing section I took the saturation down about 40 this made the colors seem dingy and not as vibrant. I then had to raise the filter strength because the top row was pretty much all dark. Oddly this didn't effect the bottom row but only made the top row visible.

Last is the picture of a pinwheel. I have a few outside of my house. I enjoy sitting on the deck and just watching them spin. I took a few photos of this one because I was not sure exactly how to capture it. I liked this because the pinwheel was not centered and the green from the grass and plant really made the photo feel earthy. I didn't edit this photo at all because I felt it showed what a pinwheel is: simple.
