Self Portrait: Reflection




For my reflection photo I took a little container and filled it with water then got my reflection in it on the opposite side. I cropped out the background things that were distracting and focused it on my reflection.

Refraction Series

 For my first refraction image, I adjusted the levels of white and gray. Then, I added saturation to emphasize the dislocation of the straw.
The second image I did is one of my glasses at home, behind it is a dish dryer and below it is wrapping paper designed with candy canes. The first thing I did was add saturation and make the photo brighter. Then, I cropped out some thingsd that were distracting attention from the glass itself.
 
  My third photo showing refraction is a glass with three peices of chalk, in front of wallpaper and a bottom design. I added more color to make the twisted colors on the glass stand out.
The last refraction image I took was a wine glass again, with a straw. This shot of the wine glass also shows it's shadow being warped.
