Zirkle+T-+Texture

Zirkle Texture 1 Zirkle Texture 2 Zirkle Texture 3 Zirkle Final

First I took Texture 3 and made it my background. I changed the contrast first, then I changed the brightness, then the saturation. After that I added texture 2 over the background, and then put texture 1 inside of texture 2. I changed the saturation, brightness, and contrast and saturation on these two textures. After that, I slightly blurred the background which led to the final product above.

In the final photograph I used compositional techniques such as depth of field to create space between the floor and the flowers by using only focus on the flowers. I had also used rule of thirds to set up the picture so that the bottle was at the center. Point of view was also used, having a more aerial view looking down into the bottle.

The texture most emphasized is probably 1 and 2. The bottle and clock were meant to pop out of the picture and be the first thing your eyes see. I also wanted the flowers because they made a nice background and mixed with the bottle.

This assignment seemed pretty successful to me in general. It met all the requirements it needed to and kinda looked good in the process. For my first time using Photoshop it was pretty good, but I want to learn how to make my images look higher quality and more sharper.
