Photo Restoration

Using tools in Adobe Photoshop, our assignment was to restore an old photograph and make it cleaner. Above is the original and below you can see my final restoration.

Shoe Ad: Asics

For this assignment we were required to take a photo of a shoe and use that to create a magazine ad. I took a picture of my Asics running shoes, loaded it into Adobe Photoshop and added some effects – nothing too fancy. Below you an see the original photograph that I used.

Depth of Field

This assignment requires us to snap four photos to exhibit depth of field. Using three objects lined up diagonally, the objective was to have all of them in focus for one shot, and have three separate pictures of each object focused on its own.

For the above image where I have all three shot glasses in focus, I used an 8 second shutter speed with f/22 aperature. For the images below, I used 1/20 second shutter speed with f/1.8 aperature. I used a Nikon 50mm f/1.8 lens for all my pictures. Below you can see the front, middle and back shot glasses in focus, respectively.

Philippines – where I was born.

Canada – where I live.

New York – where I want to be.
