Hot spot

Thermal spot in the Yellowstone.

Another Bison

This was taken in Yellowstone trip one.

Final Presentation

I want the tree to be in focus, this was taken with the sunlight directly behind me. I did not need a high ISO. I took the advice from the other students and I made the grass less bright, I darkened where it was too bright.

I was closer to the subject and still had good lighting from the sun. I was in the shadows and again wanted the trees to be in focus.

I was taking this in the evening during sunset. I wanted as much light as possible but not to much because it was becoming night.

I used a sky pop to make the sky more brighter and show better what my subject is.

I took this during the evening so the colors were not the best, I changed it to a black and white to show the details of the mountains, trees and how the clouds are covering the upper portion. The lighting was not good so I had to brighten the exposure and shadows more.

There was not enough light when taking the photo and I had to brighten the exposure to gain more light and not have it so dark. I did not have the right settings to have more light exposure.

I brightened the snow and made the photo bright to show the deer's faces and bodies better. The original photo was black and with the ISO being low I was able to bring up the brightness without having it look fake. I made the crop come down more towards the animals so there was not a lot of what above them.

I added more saturation into the photo to make the yellow tree stand out more. I

cropped more off the top and darkened the bottom a little so the snow was not so bright.

I used a sky pop to bring more definition to the sky.

I brighten the photo, the photo was very dark and almost black.

I took this on my phone, It is a jpeg and I had the setting to make it more clear but to also not look grainy. I darkened around the subject to bring down the white and darken it more.

I cropped out most of the lake and it was sunny clear sky. I also cropped in on one side because it did not add to the photo. 

the bison face was dark I had to up the exposure to bring more definition to his face. I cropped it so he fills the frame but is moving along as well

I used a sky pop to bring more vibrancy to the sky and show the colors of the morning.

I put this as black and white, I used a preset filter bit add more white and exposure to show the background. I had also darkened the shadows.

I darken the rocks because of how bright they were and I wanted the focus to be on the water and the waves.

This was during sunrise and there was plenty of light from the sun to capture the moment. I did a dehaze and clarity. I left the settings alone for the most part of but I did brighten the photo a little.

I did a sky pop to make the sky more bright and bring out the colors more.

I made this a black and white photo, thermal locations work well with the settings. 

I cropped and brightened the green and whites to show what my subject is. I was not worried for the back ground, I wanted to show how the hot springs or thermal locations effect the area around it.

I made this black and white, I did not want much light to come in because I was wanting to focus on the thermal spot and not the colors around it.

I brightened the ducks to show their faces more, I cropped out the parts that did not add to the photo.

I cropped out the street and brighten the photo because it was still dark from the clouds. I add more yellow to the plants to bring the color out more.

I cropped the background that was not adding to the photo. I put more red and orange color to be able to show them more and add contrast to the steam

I adjusted the clarity and a little of the dehaze to be able to see the water more clearly.
