i took this photo with an above head angle with a reflection outside of the fish exhibit. the goal of this picture was to show a reflection off the globe. i didn't edit this photo too much, but i used a hue/saturation layer to brighten up the moss on the center of the rock. but with the darker moss, i made it a little darker.

i took this photo from a body point of view in the bird exhibit. i first used the clone stamp tool to add a couple more flowers, then gave those flowers a little more vibrance by using a hue and saturation layer. i also got rid of some of the branches in the background by using the black conceals white reveals method. finally i used a filter tool to arch the branch to give the picture just a little more obscurity.

I took this photo standing with a pov of me looking up with natural light.

I used the auto modes on the camera, which resulted in a kind of middle depth of field. I found it challenging to get the bird in frame when it was about to fly away

Editing-

In Photoshop, I increased size of the bird and changed the saturation very slightly to make it warmer. the attention drawer is the sticks (leading lines) leading to the bird.

I applied the cloning stamp to a couple of the leaves to add more detail in the trees.

I took this photo from more of a higher angle but my goal for this picture was to get the movement of the otter but I couldn't get the right timing. I like how you can tell that it's moving although there isn't any blur.

I took this photo from a straight angle in the fish exhibit and what I like most about this photo is that there's a lot of space around the fish by the wall. This photo also looks like it was take underwater.

This image was taken when someone was wake surfing. This picture was originally very good but the water was a lot more vibrant in color than the person. I fixed this by creating a layer mask and turning down the vibrance, brightness, hue, and saturation all at once. Next, I used an adjustment layer and used the brush tool to paint back over the subject. I did this for brightness, hue, saturation, and vibrance in the end. Overall, I am very happy with how this photo turned out because it allowed the surfer to grab more of the viewers' eye when looking at it, and it creates a complete visual effect.

I took this photo from an ant's eye view. Since ants are very small, they probably cannot see very far, so I started with making the background blurry. Next, I turned down the hue and the saturation to make the colors not pop as much and create a simpler look. Next, I messed around with the color balance for awhile until I found a color that looked natural for this photo. I finished up by turning the lightness down for a less vibrant image, and the results were perfect.

For this photo I wanted to dramaticize the paintings and make them appear more specific. To do this I decreased brightness and increased contrast to make the photo itself seem more dramatic. After that I added a red hue to each of the photos to make them seem more connected and contrast more from the blank wall. Lastly I added more shadow beneath all of them while adding light above each of them, this gives the paintings a more 3D look and makes them appear as if they are popping out from the wall.

I took this photo at a straight on angle, I wanted to highlight the great condition and specific details of the car and put less emphasis on the areas around it. In the original photo the car looks much less special and from the editing it looks more interesting. First I increased contrast and turned the brightness down so the specific details on the car were more visible. After I adjust the brightness to be brighter on smaller details so they wouldn't get lost such as the inside of the wheels and the interior of the car. This highlights how the car especially and makes it more contrasted with the area around it.

I took this photo with a slight upwards angle. I tried to make the lighting look spooky and emphasize all of the shadows in her face. I also wanted the light to look very soft and not take away from her face.
Editing- I first changed the brightness and contrast to emphasize the shadows even more in her face. After than I changed the hue and saturation to make the light look more pink. I then went in with the brush tool to give her that pink hue and make her look like she is holding fireballs. After that I changed the brightness and contrast and the levels to make everything fit within the composition.

I took this photo straight on while lining myself up to try and get the turtle to be in motion. I wanted there to be some contrast between the background of the water/decorations and the fish. In the original photo it is much harder to see so it was taken with the intent of editing.
Editing: First I increased the brightness and the contrast to make the turtle stand out from the background. I then adjusted my levels and curves to emphasize the turtle even more. Then I adjusted the hue so I could change the background to be blue to compliment the orange fish. After that I adjusted the brightness and levels to make everything fit and blend together.

I took this photo while leaning forward and turning left to capture them reacting. The first thing I did was turn the brightness down to things were easier to focus. Then I turned exposure up. Then I made a mask of them then turned the vibrance of it up to make the photo more vibrant.

# data[].attributes.body
i took this standing in the middle of the buliding and i changed the brightness to be really high and i also made the contrast really high so it would make it more sharp looking and then i used the hue and saturation to make the color green more green by putting it at green.

I took this photo in the monkey building and I changed the color balance of the whole photo to have more of a blue undertone than the original red undertone it had.

# data[].attributes.body
I took this photo outside of the resturaunt. I masked the child to make the background darker. I made the colors more viberant. I also turned the brightness down.

This picture was taken extremely close and low to the ground in a planter. I made the spider and its webs solely in focus, while the flower made up the background and central color. I made sure it had a shallow depth of field. In photoshop, I decreased the brightness slightly to make the dark browns of the spider more prominent while also increasing the contrast to overall make the photo more lively. Using the curves I adjusted the background to decrease the vibrancy of the green to be darker and more of a forest green shade. Lastly, I used hue and saturation to decrease to pink color of the flower to more of a red-orange to match the hickory-red undertone of the spider.

I took this from a birds eye view. The photo was originally brown with blue robin eggs. What I did first was add a hue and saturation layer, I changed the hue to all the way to 180+ which makes the red egg, I inverted it and then used my brush tool and colored in my eggs very closely. Before coloring it in I tuned my saturation and lightness down, lightness 1/4 the way down and saturation at about 28. After coloring in the egg I thought it would be cool to do an Easter theme. This time I did hue and saturation yet again, however, i turned the hue down to -128 saturation up to 20 and lightness down to -22. This made the birds nest and night lighter purple. I then added exposure but did not invert this one like the others. I kept it the same and changed the settings the slightest bit to make the pock a dots on the egg. The end

I took this photo outside of nutrition 414 and in natural light. I increased the exposure to lighten it up and emphasize the yellow colors of the ducks.
Editing -
In photoshop, I increased the vibrancy of the picture and brightened the feathers colors. There were some muted colored feathers in the mix so I used the hue and saturation adjustment to change them to brighter. I also wanted to contrast the ground with the baby ducks, so I used an adjustment layer plus mask to highlight the colored parts and make them a deeper and heightened the contrast of the entire picture. I also brightened the entire photo and increased the hue to make the photo seem less boring and uncolorful.

# data[].attributes.body
I took this photo from somewhat of an ants eye view of these snakes and put my phone right up to the glass to avoid reflections, and I zoomed in a bit just so I would get the main focus of the snakes and nothing more.
When editing, I added more saturation and contrast to the green snake to make it pop out more, and then I made the snake that was originally brown in the background blue so it would be more noticeable like the green one was.

I took this picture outside when it was raining a lot and it was on a window. When I took it I didn't do anything special to exposure or angles because I wanted to make it black and white. The difficult part of taking this picture was trying to make sure the picture is focusing on the rain drops without getting to close that it would start to blur. In photoshop, I made it black and white by getting rid of saturation and darkened the picture by lowering the brightness. I increased the contrast to make the lines the back a bit more defined and for the lights and darks of each rain drop stand out more. I also lowered the brightness and exposure of the photo to make it look darker. Using a mask, I made the bigger raindrop's highlights a bit brighter using the brightness/contrast adjustment and then I used the spot healing brush to fix some of the window's scratches so it looked better.

There were a lot of layer masks used in this edit. The lighting in the enclosure was very soft, this made the lizard look too bright. To combat this I tried adjusting the lighting of the background, But the image still seemed to be washed out. So I then adjusted the brightness and exposure of the lizard. This worked well because the lizard was black and changing the brightness didnt rely have any negative effects. there was a green reflection from the plant bouncing onto the lizard's back and I didn't really like that because it sort of took away from the feel of the image. So I painted a black overlay layer on the green reflection and then tried to match the painted layer to the color of the lizard's scales. Finally, I painted a border around the picture and turned the opacity down to create a vignette.

this image was taken outside of the fish and reptile exibit this was a flower bed that was really pretty but there were only yellow and purple flowers. So what i id was i added a layer mask and changed the color of some of the flowers to green. after that i changed some of the purple to a nice bright red color. Finaly i brought up the hue of red to make the entire image brighter to somewhat mask the gloomyness of the day.

I took this photo standing up so you could see all of the gorilla. I waited until the gorilla sat down to take this photo. when I edited this photo, the intention was to make the gorilla easier to see. So I changed a lot of the exposure and contrast in this photo to make the gorilla more of the center of attention while also bringing out more of the color of the background. It was relatively hard to get god lighting for this photo due to the gorilla being behind glass and for him being a little far from the camera.

I took this image right outside of the second set of doors at the zoo. I used the sunlight in this picture just because I didnt need any additional lighting. In editing I used saturation and darkness layers to make the flowers stand out more and to turn the front flower from red to blue. I really just wanted the flowers to stand out more because there wouldnt be much to look at otherwise.

# data[].attributes.body
Just with my first photo, this one was also difficult to get an image of because one: I had to take a picture through the glass. Two: the lighting the enclosure had was very unnatural, this created a very unwanted cold look which was hard to fix. In editing, I created a layer mask of the snake and then inverted it. Inverting the layer mask allowed me to edit the surrounding area around the snake. When editing the area around the snake I focused on trying to make the snake's habitat look less cold. This meant darkening the image to mute the cold unnatural lighting coming from the top as well as changing the color balance to cater more towards a warmer look. After that, I created a new layer and layer mask. This layer mask was focused on the snake itself. I made the snake brighter than the background as well as adjusted the saturation to fit the new brightness of the snake. I also edited some of the colors to make the yellow in the snake more prominent to help combat the cold look naturally occurring in the photo.

# data[].attributes.body
I used black and white to make the animals stand out more in the picture, there was iridescent lighting from the big lights above, I also made the picture less bright so it wouldnt hurt my eyes as much.

I took this photo inside the pony shelter away from natural light. I increased the exposure to lighten it up and emphasize the blue colors of the peacock.
Editing -
In photoshop, I increased the vibrancy of the picture and brightened the feathers colors. There were some muted colored feathers in the mix so I used the hue and saturation adjustment to change them to brighter. I also wanted to contrast the black and white feather with the colored ones, so I used an adjustment layer plus mask to highlight the colored parts and make them a deeper and heightened the contrast of the entire picture. I also brightened the entire photo and increased the hue to make the photo seem less boring and uncolorful.

I was crouching down to take this picture to get close to the fence. The first thing I did was turn the exposure down to darken the photo. After that I turned the offset down which darkened the picture again but in a different way. It made the fence very dark which I liked because the fence was the main part of the photo. Next I changed the brightness. I thought the photo go to dark so I turned it up. Then I painted the bottom black so it kind of faded into lighter. Lastly there was a person standing right in the middle and I didn't want him there so I cut him out and filled the space. I used the clone stamp and the spot healing brush to make the photo look more real.

I took this photo standing up straight with my camera at about neck height. The penguin wouldn't look at me directly so I had to wait for a few seconds until it would look in my direction and I could take the picture. When I edited, I first made the colors more vibrant and turned the penguin's stomachs match the color of the water. When I changed the color of the water, I turned up the purples and the reds and turned down everything else. The last two edits were just to make the rocks and the water a more interesting purple color instead of the original gray color.

This was a difficult image to capture due to having to take the picture through the glass of the enclosure. This caused the photo to be very soft. When Editing I duplicated the background layer so I could then created a layer mask of the photo. After creating a layer mask on another layer I went back to the original layer and darkened the image, ads well as lowered the exposure. The goal of this was to darken everything around the green snake to create contrast. after darkening the background I created a clipping mask on the layer with the layer mask. This clipping mask would be to increase the vibrancy of the green snake to push the contrast even further. Finally I used the brush tool and painted a small border in black around the edges of the image and lowered the opacity to create a vignette.

I crouched down to take this photo so the hippo was level with my camera and i had the edge of the kid looking in.
I decreased the brightness of the photo so there wouldn't be a glare on the glass over the hippos face. I also added a curves layer to change the coloring of the area and to again reduce glare across the glass from the sun. Lastly, I added a hue and saturation layer to make the blues and purples of the hippo stick out more. I excluded the girl from this edit so she would still stick out against the blue of the water.

I took this picture of a turkey vulture by getting as close to the vultures level but I didnt want the darker blue lighting of the day to make the image have a sort of sad mood. So what i did is i turned up the red and green hues on the image to help give the picture a brighter green color. But the hand rail in the corrner had a weird green black hue to it so i put a layer mask over the rail to block out the green hues.

I took this photo over the plant and outside in the natural light. I increased the exposure to lighten it up and emphasize the colors. I filled the frame of it to emphasize how many leaves and plants there were. I struggled with avoiding a shadow being put on the plant since it was over the plant.
Editing -
In photoshop, I increased the vibrancy of the picture and brightened the leaves' white parts to emphasize the colors. There were some dead leaves in the mix so I used the hue and saturation adjustment to change them to dark green. I also wanted to contrast the lighter leaves with the greens so I used an adjustment layer plus mask to highlight the pink parts and make them a deeper red and heightened the contrast of the entire picture. I also brightened the entire photo and increased the hue to make the photo seem less dull and boring

I took this picture of a giraffe eating. I made it more vibrant and saturated, twice.I made a mask over the giraffe and I brightened it. I then edited the exposure over the top.

# data[].attributes.body
I took this photo after standing higher on the sides to get the giraffe more level with my camera, while also waiting for it to be in motion. I tried to focus the most on the face of the giraffe as it turned its head to the side, so its face would be opposing the direction its legs were moving.
In photoshop, I increased the contrast of the background to make the giraffe look brighter and be more prominent in the sunset. I also added a bit of a warmer reddish-orange glow to the background so it was less brown and plain. Therefore, it would match the warm reddish-brown hues of the giraffe. I didn't feel like this picture needed as much editing as the setting sun already illuminated the picture and created a natural orange glow and filter to the image.

I took this photo to try and get the reflection of the chair and the sky in the water. When I took this photo, I put my phone down unto the ground while upside down so I could get my camera as low to the ground as possible because I wanted to get as much of the reflection as I could. I took it around noon while the sky was still gray, a little bit after it had stopped raining. I focused my camera on the water and the reflection so you could see what was happening in the reflection. When I edited, I brightened the chair and everything in the background to really emphasize the difference between the reflection and the original image. To further emphasize this difference, I reduced all the colors and faded the sky in the reflection to try and get as much contrast as I could between them.

This photo is of two penguins. One is looking at me and one is looking the other way. I took this photo looking straight at it I was not looking up or down at them. The first thing I did was change the brightness and contrast. I turned the contrast up all the way which gave the water this cool green color that I liked. Then I turned the brightness down. After that I painted over the penguins in black which reveals the original color which was brighter. I did this to direct the viewers eyes to the penguins because that is the main subject of the photo. Next I changed the saturation. I turned the saturation up which made the color of the rocks and the water pop out. After I did that I put a bright green photon filter on it. This gave the photo a green tint which I really liked with the colors of the photo originally and it also made the color pop. Lastly I changed the exposure. I turned exposure down a little bit which darkened the photo. After that I colored black over the water and the penguins which made them brighter and makes them stand out more.

I took this photo it was blurry but I thought I could turn it into something, my first initial thought was to make the tiger lighter but then I thought that I should make it blend in. So I used brightness and contrast 2 times the tiger, in between I used exposure. I made my focal points the rocks in the back and made it so the tiger would blend in.  I used a layer mask and the brush tool to color in the lion and only the lion. The rock behind it is the lightest thing in the picture also due to the bruh tool being used on the lion and then I put the tinest amount on the rock.

I took this photo looking above the water, with the raining coming down.

I used the auto modes on the camera, which resulted in a wide depth of field. I found it challenging to get a photo that wasn’t burry because of the rain or wasn't clear because the seal kept moving.

Editing-

In Photoshop, I increased the contrast and changed the saturation so it appears that the water was brighter. I added curves and levels to draw attention to the seals eyes and the rain in the back in the edited photo. And I added more brightness to its face so you could see it clearly. And finally I added more contrast to make the picture more clean so you could make out that it is raining.

I took this picture on the ground with artificial lighting going through and it was shot through glass. I used the normal camera mode and lowered the exposure so that it was not as bright and I wanted to put more emphasis on the jaguar. It was also lowered so that it could compensate for the awkward lighting. The part I found difficult was trying to get rid of the reflection in the glass so the viewer could not see me.
Editing -
In photoshop. I increased the contrast and darkened the photo, but used a mask to exclude the lion so it would be brighter than the background. I also increased the hue and saturation of the animal so it would seem less gray and boring than what it was before. I also used the curves adjustment to further enhance the animal to attract the viewers eye to it. After that, I edited the background a little bit and fixed up the plants in the background by using hue and saturation. Finally I used cropped the picture a little bit and adjusted the photo so that the eye was on the rule of thirds intersection. Finally I sharpened the eye to create and attraction to it

I took this photo standing up with the natural cloud light from outside shot directly to the penguin.
I focused my phone camera which resulted in a very focused picture with the background. This photo has a deep depth of field because you can see the penguin perfectly as well as the background being detailed and focused.
In photoshop. I decreased the exposure and contrast of the photo so because the natural light was consuming the animals, so I tuned it down so you could see the penguin better. I also tried to color balance the photo due to the penguin being yellowish. then lastly I changed more of the brightness to focus in the penguin more than the background.

# data[].attributes.body
I took this photo from a birds eye angle which resulted in my shadow being in the picture. I made sure the star was centered so that it would be the main focus of the photo.
I used the auto modes on the camer, this gave me the ability to show the smallest details on the plants. It was difficult to not get too much glare from the star since it was originally white.
Editing-
In Photoshop I increased a green tint on the entire photo to make the plant life seem more alive, it also highlights the smaller textures of the plants. I made the star pink to have it pop even more, which draws attention to it. I did this by adding two adjustment layers and using hue and saturation and painting a color in the "light" mode.
I applied an increased contrast filter to the entire photo and made it look more like the sun was coming from a specific angle, this allowed me to again make the star the main focus of attention and show more of the shadows and depth of the plant life around it.

I took this photo at eye level with the incandescent light from the enclosure, through the glass. I used my phone to take the picture but I was sort of left unhappy with the way the picture turned out. In photoshop I Increased the saturation and contrast on the lion and made the background black and white to make the lion stand out even more an make it clear what I want the viewer to be looking at.

I took this photo crouching low and close to the duck. I used a shallow depth of field.
In Photoshop, I healed some drops of rain that were falling because it distracts from the duck. I made the picture warmer through the tint and made it more saturated and brighter. I also sharpened it so you can see the water droplets better.

i took this photo standing in dark light. shot through the glass.
I used my phone on normal mode and didn't adjust the lighting. I found it challenging to get a picture while the penguins were moving  because of my phone camera.
In photo shop I fixed the brightness and contrast of the backround to make it more bright. and I increased the contrast on just the penquins and turned the brightness down for them. i also increased the amount of blue in the photo using color balance.

# data[].attributes.body
I took this photo relatively low to the ground but at a level angle. I was in the sunlight, but my subject, the tree, was in the shade of another tree. I used auto mode on the camera which enabled me to take a wider photo while still getting the tree to be in focus. It was difficult to get only the tree in focus without focusing on the fence or the grass.
In Photoshop, I first used the blur tool to make the background even more out of focus. Next, I increased the saturation. I then created a layer mask and made the entire picture black and white. Then, using another layer mask, I used the brush tool to paint the tree and the pine needles back into color. I then increased the hue and saturation again but only enough where it still maintained a natural looking color. Lastly, I turned the brightness down and the contrast up to accentuate the tree being the center of attention.

# data[].attributes.body
I took this photo slightly zoomed in and lowered my camera to try and be eye level with the lion. I used an auto mode on my phone camera and struggled with making it not as blurry when I would take the photo because my lens was zoomed in a little bit.
Editing
In Photoshop, I first started by making the brightness of the photo lighter because the lighting inside the zoo was horrible. When I did that I was able to see the lions face more and make it the focal point of the photo. I then made the lion a little more vibrant because it was too dull and meshed the with background too much, so when I made the vibrancy higher, It brought even more focus to the lion. I then used the sharpen took a little bit over the lion because it was a little blurry and wanted to bring it to life more. Next I made it so the red levels of the lion were more there and lowered the blue levels because the background had some blue in it.

# data[].attributes.body
I took this photo after lining myself up in the middle of the stairwell. I wanted the mini hallway thing to be able to have some leading lines and the red structure to be a natural frame to the middle of the photo. I wanted the foliage to be where the viewers eyes fall. I was in a room that was naturally lit, so I had to try and adjust the exposure while I was taking the photo so the light was not affecting the focus of the shot. I did not use a certain mode on my phone except for when I slightly adjusted the exposure and changing my phone to hold it in landscape format.
Editing
In Photoshop, I first changed the exposure to be a bit darker because the natural light in the photo was still pretty powerful. I also increased the contrast so that eventually I could make everything a bit sharper and darker than the middle portion of the photo. I then used Levels and made the whole photo darker, then used the brush tool to remove the Levels from the middle portion to make the foliage brighter. I didn't want to make this look too powerful though, so I then made the exposure just slightly darker so that the whole composition matches. I then wanted to make the colors a bit brighter because I had done so much to make everything darker, so I increased the saturation using hue/saturation. Finally, I used color balance to make the surrounds look a bit more red so that it complements the foliage because green and red are complimentary.
