The Orange Lilies

This is a mostly harmonious color picture. It goes from green to orange with a hint of the gray sidewalk in the background. I used Photo shop to up the vibrance, I used rubber stamp to stamp out a handle, and I used a watercolor filter to give it a different look. I think lilies are really pretty and I like the look of this picture. I was walking around my town when I took this picture.

The Yellow Gaillardias

This is a picture of harmonious color with hints of complementary color. I used Photo shop to up the vibrancy of the flowers, erase some distracting needless background and a watercolor filter to make it interesting. I was just walking around town when I took this picture. I took many pictures in that manner.

Sassy Angel Kitty

This is a picture using direct lighting. I used vibrance, saturation, and selective color in photo shop to bring out my cat's color and the color of the sky. This cat if the princess of the house. She is very spoiled and snooty but we love her anyway. This little ledge is known as Angel's perch. She loves to sit on this ledge and lounge in the sun.

The Hot Tub

This is a complementary color picture I took of my back yard. I used the cutout filter in photoshop to give it this cartoony look. I enjoy the shadows and how they turned out with the cutout filter.

Sunset over DC

This is a harmonious color picture. It's a sunset in Washington DC. I really like this picture because it's really pretty and it reminds me of the good time I had with my dad on our trip to Washington DC. I took this picture myself. I photoshopped this picture to get rid of a line that went across the top. I also photoshopped this picture to be more vibrant and contrasting.
