Best Of...

 This picture is my most favorite picture out of all of the pictures that I have taken and trust me, there is a lot! What I like about this picture is that you can see the geese flying through the sky and all of the different colors in the sky are appealing to the eye. I love this picture and I hope you do too!
 This picture to me is mysterious. The original picture was in color and the reflection of the trees in the water were upside down. I then flipped the trees to be right side up and made the picture black and white. To me, it looks better this way (in black and white) and not in color.
This picture is amazing to me. The way the water looks and the way the color of the leaves stick out and pop out of the water. If you look closely, you can also see the speckles on the rocks that are in the water. This picture took me a long time to edit with a little help from my teacher, it turned out very very well.

These are my Best Of pictures!

Texture

 This is my texture project. Both of these were taken Thanksgiving Day. The top picture is cranberry salad and the bottom picture is the cherry pie my mom made. I like these pictures because in the cranberry salad you can really see the cranberries and the marshmallows that are in the salad. I also like the picture of the cherry pie as if you look closely, you can see the sugar on top of the pie. Enjoy!

Just A Typical Day

The project this time was to take pictures of what you do on a typical day. This is me getting ready for school Monday morning. The pictures are me laying in bed, doing my hair, putting on my make-up, eating sliced pineapple for breakfast and brushing my teeth. I had a lot of fun with this project. It is unique and unusual but I liked it. I like it is cool to see what my classmates are going to post and to see what they do in the morning and throughout the day. Hope you like it!

ABC's

This is my ABC's report. We were assigned to take pictures of the ABC's but they could not be the real letter. They had to be something that looked like the letters but wasn't actually the letter. This project was hard, and confusing. But overall, I liked a good challenge. Some of the letters were very hard to find. I searched and searched for the letter Y and the letter A. I think that they were the most complicated letters to find. But after I took the picture of the letter A, I loved it! If you cannot tell, it is a swing set. And I think the funniest picture is the O. It is a roll of toilet paper! I think that the letter J is a very unique one as it is the Nike symbol from my tennis shoes. Cool right! Well these are my ABC's, Hallie Style!

CD Project

Back Cover
 This is my CD project. The top picture is the back of the CD. The name of my artist is Scotty Cozy and he also plays the best classical music on a piano. I really enjoyed doing this project but it was also kind of nerve racking and it took a lot of time. I think that coming up with the song titles was the hardest because you just had to think of random song titles. It may seem easy but it really was not that easy.
Front Cover
 This picture is the front of the CD cover. This is my favorite  one out of the 3 sides and think it turned out really well. As I was taking the pictures, it was hard to make them look like they do. I adjusted the contrast to make the keys stick out a little more and there was also kind of a brownish tint to them so I also made them black and white. This on turned out very well in my opinion and it is my favorite.
Inside Cover
This is the inside cover. The inside cover I just wanted to make simply and easy. I just pasted two pictures onto a blank document and called it good. But I also did turn up the contrast and made it black and white as this picture had a brownish tint to it. The project took me almost a week to complete but I believe that it was worth it. I very much did enjoy this project and I hope you enjoy looking at them!

One More Random.

This picture was originally in color and it did not look to well. I liked the picture overall but the color didn't fit the picture. With all the colors from the trees and the grass and sky, it was to busy. So I thought to myself, "What if the picture was in black and white?" So I tried it and what do you know, I like it much much better in black and white. The last thing I did to the picture was turned the contrast up so the grass, tress, and sky you be darker so only the fuzzy grass would stick out. This picture turned out very well.

Random.

Yum! These are some fresh homemade cookies that my mom and I made a couple weekends ago. They are snickerdoodles. They are also my favorite kind of cookie. What I like about this picture is that you can really see the cinnamon and sugar on the cookies. All in all, this picture turned out better then I thought it was going to turn out.

Helen Sotiriadis Report

This top picture is the picture I took to match a picture that Helen Sotiriadis took. The picture Sotiriadis took will  not show up in picture form on m blog so I have the URL for the picture posted below. I tried my best to copy the best I could and I think I did pretty good, getting the same colored M&M's in the picture and all that good stuff. Enjoy!
