For our final project we were to show a narrative using Photoshop. In the first picture I used a scan of a map to show my move from Cleveland Ohio to Louisville. On that scan I included a picture of a church and wedding bells to signify my marriage to my wife. At Louisville on the map I placed a photo of the sign of Kentucky truck Plant, the reason that my wife and I moved here. In the next photo I showed a picture of a sign for ford behind that I put a sunset to signify my ending days at Ford after I took the buyout from Ford. I then lowered the opacity of the picture of the sign. Under that I put a sunrise with a photo of Spaulding University to show the beginning of my education at Spalding University. In the last photo I decided to create a scene for a photo of equipment that is used in nursing. With this photo I added the text and used the text wrapping tool and arched both text boxes.

For our fifth assignment I decided to create a photo based on games of chance. With the first photo being a poker table, this photo was created completely using scanned objects. Using the scanner I first scanned the playing cards that I wanted to use, then with the magic wand I selected and sized each card to fit in with the image size. The next step was to give the illusion of a card being tossed onto the pile. To achieve this affect I sized one card( the ace of spades) larger than the other cards then used the radial blur tool to give the affect of the card turning. To make the money pile I copied each layer then merged the layers. In the seconded photo I scanned some tarot cards and palm reading cards to represent telling the future. Along with the cards I added some old coins that went along with the cards.

In this weeks assignment we where to create a landscape or cityscape in Photoshop. I chose to create a landscape that showed nature taking back. In this photo I found a building front on historic Frankfort ave. With this photo I added the background of a creek and merged the two together. I then added the reflection on the water by flipping the image of the building, changing the opacity and erasing parts that would not be in the water. By changing the brightness of the of the building it gave the appearance of being in the same light as the creek. In the second photo I took a picture of a flower in my yard and by selecting the center of the flower I was able to change the texture to a stained glass texture. While playing around with a picture of a cow I had taken I added wings and boots to the cow. After resizing the image to fit into the main picture I was able to arrange the image onto the flower. With what I have learned to do so far with Photoshop I am able to insert people or objects in to other photos.
