Final:Photo Gallery

I'm calling this collection "Life is a Highway". It represents life's great journey and the joy you can find along the way. This is Still life and Landscape... And just a little bit of photo manipulation on some of them. Yes I had some problems! My animals kept getting in the way, and I also had a problem with getting my lighting to look right.

"Dawn"
Out on the road next to my house. The subject is to the side, it basically follows the rule of thirds, I used a deep depth of field. There was a cat in the road and a phone pole that I edited out. 

"The Beginning"
On my porch on top of paper. It's a still life. There were some spots on the picture that I edited out.

"Get Going"
In my front yard. It basically follows the rule of thirds and I used a deep depth of field. I edited out some branches that were hanging in the top corner from another tree, and I think I made a few lighting adjustment. 

"Teenage Years"
On my porch on top of paper It's a still life I took it in natural lighting in the shade There was no editing done (unless you count re-sizing) .

"On My Way"

On the road next to my house. I used a deep depth of field, and I basically used the rule of thirds.
I edited out telephone wires out of the top, and a random pipe on the side of the road.

"Graduation"
On my porch on top of paper. Still life. I used a plain background, it's very zoomed in on the subject, and I took it in natural lighting in the shade. Edited lighting a little bit, and I edited out weird spots on the picture.

"Going the Distance"
On the dug way above our canyon It's pretty balanced and is following good composition, it has a deep depth of field. There was some spots on the picture that we edited out... I think our lens are a little bit damaged.

"A Day to Remember"
This was taken on our porch. I used the same techniques as the other still life's. I made it black and white, and I edited out little blotches that were on the screen. 

"Carry On"
This was taken for one of my last project, but I decided to add it to this collection. 

"First Baby"
This was taken on our porch. Same as the other still life's. The spots were edited out, and the lighting was slightly adjusted.

"Keep Moving Forward"
In our canyon a couple of miles away from our house. Same as the other landscapes. I edited the spots out of the picture.

"Forty and Still Good Looking"
Same as the other still life's. The same as the other still Life's. Edited out spots

"Lives Curves"
Same as most of the other landscapes. The same as the other landscapes in this project. I got rid of the spots on the picture, and I think I made this one brighter and have a bit more contrast.

"From the Grandkids"
This was taken on the porch. Same as the other still life's :) Made it brighter, and got rid of the spots that were on the picture.

I really wanted to have a sunset picture! But unfortunately I had technical difficulties when the time came around to take a picture of it! Not to mention it was covered up with rain clouds. :(
