Architecture Original Photo

yshin28_2_1 — 2025-04-28 01:46:17 UTC

I need a contrast between the background (sky) and the object (building). I will make the building's color brighter so the main object can stand out in this photo.

Object Original Photo

yshin28_2_1 — 2025-04-28 01:47:18 UTC

Will need a clear contrast of colors so the essential signs on the wall can stand out more.

Need to have reasonable color changes (what is the reason to contrast the colors of the walls?)

Final Work for First Artwork

yshin28_2_1 — 2025-05-05 06:34:06 UTC

I decided to change the side for the top part because I think it is better to make a different side of the image. I tried to emphasize and enhance the mood of Napoleon's dominance (the main character in the book Animal Farm) with different colors. The visible hands are emphasized because Napoleon was the one who manipulated the other animals and used them to his benefit.

Progress Photo (Final)

yshin28_2_1 — 2025-05-05 06:50:26 UTC

Feedback and Change:

Different angles and positions of the four photos

Colors are good (brighter maybe?)

What is the main point of change of colors?

Pop Art Andy Warhol Inspiration Image

yshin28_2_1 — 2025-05-07 04:24:50 UTC

I want to try the four images in all different color in one of the final artwork of pop art.

Rules of Composition: Ant's Eye View Inspiration Image

yshin28_2_1 — 2025-05-07 04:26:37 UTC

yshin28_2_1 — 2025-05-07 04:31:48 UTC

I want to take the view from my home (using stairs, windows, or veranda).

yshin28_2_1 — 2025-05-07 04:33:28 UTC

Ant's Eye View Photograph

yshin28_2_1 — 2025-05-07 05:14:21 UTC

Final Photograph

Ant's looking at the rocks.

1/250 F4.5 ISO 100

Techniques: ISO, Depth of Filled, Angle of the Camera

Feedback: Great POV of ants finding food and materials on the ground.

Bird's Eye View Photograph

yshin28_2_1 — 2025-05-07 05:15:51 UTC

Final Photograph

A bird is sitting on the top of the railing and observing the stairs.

1/250 F4.8 ISO 100

Feedback: Good angle to show the perspective of the bird while it watching from the end of the handrail of the stairs to find something to eat, maybe.

Mirror-Reflection (original)

yshin28_2_1 — 2025-05-11 15:02:31 UTC

Before Editing

Feedback: Make sure there is more contrast between the reflection of water from the finger and the mirror so this photo can show it is using water, not only the mirror. The main thing in this photo is the use of water. Also, make the finger reflect on the mirror clearly so it can show that this photo is about a water mirror reflection photo.

Minimalists original (Yellow Rose)

yshin28_2_1 — 2025-05-11 15:02:55 UTC

Before Editing

Feedback: make sure the water shows clearly, and make the contrast between the flower and the water clearly.

Reassembled (original) Food Photography

yshin28_2_1 — 2025-05-11 15:04:17 UTC

Before Editing

Feedback: Make the texture of the food clear, and the main focus should be on the food. The saturation and lightness should be increased a little bit.

Original Version 9 Before Editing

Bird's Eye View Final Edited Image

yshin28_2_1 — 2025-05-18 13:28:34 UTC

Edited Version:

This is the photo of the dinner that my dad and I made for my mom's birthday. I decided to take this as a bird's eye view because I want to show the whole view of the dinner and the combination of different colors of Korean food on the dinner table. I edited saturation, texture, brightness, and contrast on this photo.

Water Photography (Colour) Inspiration Image

yshin28_2_1 — 2025-05-21 01:50:58 UTC

I want to use some colors in the background of the (glass) cup and make the effect of the inspiration image.

Final Colour Water Photography

yshin28_2_1 — 2025-05-21 13:16:55 UTC

I wanted to show how the pattern of the pillow changes differently when I use water. Because, when I use the water, the pattern of the pillow changes and shows differently from the original pattern of the pillow as the pattern reflects on water and the clear glass.
