BW To Color

We had a total of 5 different images with different colors for this project but this one was by far my favorite. Santiago said I should be a Blonde but I have to disagree.... I loved the color scheme and think it went well with it being a relaxed summer beach picture. 

Autoscopy Part 2

Part 2 of my Autoscopy project focuses on the fear I had of losing my Grandma and the fear I now have of going through fighting Alzheimers Disease. Alzheimers Disease slowly takes away your memories and normal life functions, which is represented by the leaves beginning to blow away around my hair. The blurriness of my image represents the sense of your memories and thoughts beginning to become blurry and finally, the two photos of my Grandmother represent my memory I have of her which I am so thankful for and so scared to lose.

This is just Part 1 of my Autoscopy project but I loved this assignment because it gave us the opportunity to play around with the variety of tools in Photoshop while being able to apply a concept. The concept behind Part 1 is the fear of being drowned or trapped under the ocean that is still such a mystery to use. I believe the chains added the sense of fear as well as the dark sky and water movement.
