Assignment 2
I used unity for my element of design. When I was photographing, I found things that went well together and had similar elements within. When I edited my photos I brightened and added saturation to the majority of them. Some of my photos had a blue tint so I was able to fix that in camera raw as well. Since my principle of design was unity, I tried to make the photos balanced and harmonious. I think I was successful in editing my photos but if I were to fix anything in my project I would retake some of them. This is because a couple of the pictures turned out blurry on the computer and I wish they were more clear.

histogram
1.
What is a histogram? A histogram is a tool that shows the tonal range of a specific photo.
2.
What happens to the visual when a histogram is
skewed to the left? Right? When skewed to the left, the photo has a lot of grey tones and may be underexposed. If it is skewed to the right, then the photo contains a lot of white tones and is probably overexposed.
3.
In most cases, what does a “good” histogram look
like? In general a "good" histogram would be a fairly balanced shot with a spread of black, white, and grey tones. Well exposed shots usually peak in the middle and taper off towards the left and right edges.
4.
Why is a histogram a good tool for
photographers? It can help them to adjust their exposure while taking a photo and when editing the photo fix their exposure and make a photo clearer.
