Lab 5 Response:

I just finished my lab for today, and I am . . . fairly exhausted. I know, it is pathetic, don't give me that look.  The sepia1 code took me the longest time to figure out. To be honest, I just ended up scrolling down and using bits and pieces of the sepia2 and sepia3 codes. I managed to create a decent effect, so I cannot complain. The rest of the lab involved more color coordination and separation. I can post a picture of what I managed to accomplish with the sepia code. I know it is lousy, give me a break. My project plan is still in the earliest stages of creation. Bear with me. (Not to be confused with 'bare with me', which would perhaps create some civil unrest.)

"You cant be serious!"


Weekend Response:

The lab Friday left me with some interesting results. The final task in the fourth lab asked if we could code something to brighten the light colors and darken the dark colors. I made . . . an attempt. The results were sloppy, and after consulting Oldham, it would appear that I managed to achieve something, at least.

 Picture 1:
The code involved in this alteration included a light threshold and a dark threshold.  The goal was to set two levels at which the code would change the image based upon the difference selected.

Picture 2:
This second picture was affected by code that reverses the threshold, allowing colored photos to overflow... (Something like that.) It also looks like I added snow. (kind of, i guess.)

Picture 3:
Another filter modification... With more extreme threshold effects.

So yeah, that is that. The first week went well. I have been thinking about the final project, but I have yet to really put any ideas into a plan.  I have a good amount of photos I have been collecting, and if I find one that is particularly inspiring, I may come around to a plan of sorts. I will also be posting photos to the bottom. Feel free to take one if you are interested.   

Test Post!

This is a test . . .
