Final: Things That Make Me Happy

I used to love to play piano, but over the years I have stopped. Now I am going to reestablish my love for it by learning how to play again. (I forgot to save this before I resized it for printing.)

Green tea is my favorite thing to drink. I especially love that these big cans are only 99 cents.

I love animals. This photo is of my cat that I've had since third grade. He makes me happy because he is always there to greet me when I visit at home.

The holiday season makes me really happy. I love getting ready for Christmas and putting up the tree. This picture has a cozy feeling to it because it reminds me of being in our nice warm house when it is cold outside.

Reading also makes me happy. Whenever I read, the books take me to a different place and I can escape reality for a while.

The smell of coffee brewing in the morning reminds me of home. Curling up on the couch with a hot cup of coffee and relaxing is one of my favorite things to do.

Fall is my favorite season. I like when the leaves on the trees start to change colors. I think fall has some of the prettiest scenery.

Out of all of these, music makes me the happiest. I love going to concerts and seeing the music I love being performed live. This sign is from the most recent concert I attended, which also happened to be of my favorite band.

Some final project images...

I really want to use a picture from this concert, but they basically all turned out grainy and the lights were way too bright. I'm still trying to make them work though. If not, I will work with the picture below.

Gender Swap Assignment

This is the final image after doing the gender swap.

This is the adjusted picture I used to replace the flapper's face with.

I chose an old image of a flapper to do the gender swap with.

Landscape Assignment

This image was taken under a bridge at the top of 21st Street in South Side. I changed the contrast levels of the blues and greens.

This image was also taken under the bridge at the top of 21st Street. I darkened the image and changed the contrast levels of the red.

This was taken down along the Riverfront trail in South Side. I boosted the levels of green in it.
