“The flight of a bird is wishful thinking, unless you’re a pilot.” My concentration connects with the idea of seeing the world through different views up in an airplane. How you view the world underneath your wings, and how much machine work goes into the actual plane, to make it fly. Without their engine, birds can’t fly; nor can an airplane. Using macro and leading line shots, I’ve been able to express the visual presence of being in flight.

Hello and happy Friday! This week I've been working with Photoshop, on the planes. Next week, I will be taking pictures on the plane, when all of the Chambers Singers and I go to Ireland! This will give me some more "up in the air" shots, so I can photoshop the air shots into the planes. I'm going to also take pictures of birds, so that I can layer the birds with the planes, so that I really emphasize the feeling of flying, and being free. For the first photo, I spent a WHOLE class period, trying to figure out how to delete part of the picture, add different layers, make sure all of the layers worked well together, and eventually, I gave up and started over again, because the picture looked awful. So, I painted the whole background and added back parts of the plane that I had painted off. Then, the second photo, I accidentally had pushed a button, (I can't recall which one,) and part of the pictures background turned a dark blue, which looked really nice! But, when I opened the picture today, the blue had turned into evil red wavy lines and ruined the picture. But, being that photoshop and I are on "non-clicking terms" as of now, I'm going to just be taking pictures next week, and not worrying about photoshop. Next week will be exciting!
