Selective Color

Bring on the Fall

The seasons are changing and the cool air is coming. I may not be ready for the change but you cant stop nature. Its okay because cold weather means hoodies and I love hoodies! I cant say I dont like Fall. I love Fall. One of my favorite seasons for taking photos. Especially, with all the different colors the scenery looks extra beautiful! I took Princess and Lady for a nice long walk today in the park. They loved it and so did I.  There was a nice breeze and the air was cool which makes for perfect walking weather. Its sad to say goodbye to Summer but luckily Fall makes Winter worth it.

Remember the pear tree photos I took awhile back? Well, I decided to make a selective color photo of one of my favorite pear shots. I think it came out nice. What do you think?

Written test flunker

I had my written drivers test Wednesday morning and I failed. There are fifty questions and you are allowed to get ten wrong but I got eleven. I even studied a lot which is rare for me to do. Made me so mad and upset. Especially, since the very first time I took the written I passed. Its hard since I dont allow imperfection for myself. I am almost nineteen and I still dont have my license. I wonder if I will ever pass it now. Even if I do eventually pass there wont be room to take the road test until the end of September or later. Yup, thats how full the schedule is. By then my permit will expire so who knows what will happen. I hope eventually this will all work out because driving is my passion.
So, to keep my mind from beating myself up for failing I worked on some photography today as you can see above. I think I made a pretty cool selective color photo. Funny thing is my eyes arent blue. Just sometimes depending on the lighting my eyes get a blue tone to them. I made all sorts of interesting stuff in photoshop. A good way to show yourself is through art. I also created some videos today. Creating videos makes me feel better because I am not going to be down in front of a camera. Thats no fun to watch. So, I put a smile on, hit record and ta da, my mind focuses on making a good video.
I really hope everything works out soon. I am not so confident right now. I was feeling so motivated for my license which is rare for me since I have low self esteem and low motivation. I am a driver but not a test taker. I will eventually get my license because its possible. I dont have to be positive because I just end up being mad and disappointed with myself. So, now it is time to just wait for the day I take Baby Blue out for a long drive on my own.

Colors of Crayons

I decided to try more selective color photos. The first one I did there was not enough color in the photo to make it a good selective color. So, I took my big container of crayons out and created some good shots. My room smelled like crayons for about a day but it was well worth it.

What do you think? I am proud on the outcome and I have to thank my mother for the idea. THANKS MOM! Hope, everyone is enjoying their Saturday and do not forget to have fun before it is gone!

I always thought selective color photography was neat so I decided to try it myself. This is my first one I ever done and I think it came out pretty nicely. What do you think of it?
