Space Zoom

Natalie S.
This picture was taken of christmas lights in front of my house. I selected only the pinks and blues of the christmas lights and then made a tessellation of it using photoshop.

Feathers

Molly R.
 I took this picture at the zoo over the summer. To make the tessellation, i took a triangle of a peacock's body. I like this picture because it is up close and captures the details in the peacock's feathers. I didn't enhance this picture at all to create the tessellation. 

Bella

Joanna W.
This is a combination of two pictures. The first was taken of my friend Katelyn in the courtyard while she was studying Spanish. The second is a leaf I found outside the school on the side walk. I put a copy of the leaf image on  top of the picture of Katelyn and decreased the opacity so that both images can be seen. Then I just messed with the curves and saturation to create more contrast. This image is my favorite because I like Katelyn's position and the fact that it was a candid photo. I also like the way the leaf blends in with the tree and makes the whole image look kind of faded and natural. I titled the image Bella because it means beautiful in spanish.

College

Julianne F.
This photo was taken on the Mississippi State campus, where I'm going to college this fall. It is my favorite because I love how well my jump is captured and that it's not blurry.  To edit this photo, I straightened, cropped, and changed it to black and white on iPhoto. In Photoshop, I used the Clone Stamp to fill in where my sweatshirt flew up and showed my stomach.
