In my media arts class were doing a new project, we are doing something similar to the metomophasis project. We have to find a old aged photo and morphe a modern day person into it. It would look pretty nicer. For my first photo i did, i morphed my boyfriends head into the original photo.

“Ability to change the ordinary into something special”-Robert Long
This quote is the reason I love to do photography, photography is a way I express the way I in vision and visualize everyday things. I began photography for a high school class and ever since then I’ve loved it. I have been finding ways to take photos and be in photos. Whenever my photos come out the way I expected, I gain an extra boost and enthusiasm in my mood and my approach towards my task. I really feel good about myself. My photos have no specific pattern, they come out the way I see them. At times they may be random, but most of the time they come out the way they do based on the mood I have the second I push the shutter. My favorite thing about my photography style is that I can produce what ever I want. My photos are developed by my emotions and the way I feel. So my style is very urban and artistic, so whenever I use photo shop, I always use the artistic filter. It is my favorite tool to use because there is a variety of ways I can develop a good photo. Like Richard Avedon, I enjoy a very vogue
subject and very plain background, so the photo can focus on the subject other than the back draw.

Street Photography, WOW... It's Incredible, Street photography shows you and tells you stories of reality in just one photo. Street photography is a extremely grungy but classy type of style. It can be way out there and not so much in your face at the same time. Street is more realistic than a photo done in a black room or a studio. It is very daring and spontanous because you can do so much with the style.

In photo shop, I have found a new tool known as the paint bucket, i use it for a more cartoon and animated look.
