Photo by Brittany Baker

For our Holiday Theme's assignment I had my mom drive me around so I could get a variety of different pictures. The one I chose to print was of a yard that had a blow-up snowman in the middle with a row of lights going around just the outside of the lawn. But I really like how this picture turned our because while I was taking the picture I zoomed in and out so it gave it a nice effect. Then in Photoshop CS3 I used the filter gallery and I stylized it with glowing edges. Overall I'm very happy with this picture, the snowman looks distorted and you can't tell what it is and the way the house looks almost as if it is getting pulled in.

It good that the photo shows the pattern lines, but then the focus is not as good as it should be. You said that there is a snowman in the middle but when I look I can’t see any snowman. I think that you should have better lighting and crop your picture so that people can tell where the center object is.

Overall i like this picture. The glowing lines really look good! However, I think it needs to be a little more in focus so you can tell what everything is. Like i think it would be better if you could actually tell that they blur in the middle is a snowman.

You’re right; you should be pleased with this picture because it’s so awesome! I can’t even tell what it is which makes it so original, good job.

This Photo is very creative. The distorted snow man is in a great position in the shot. It draws the viewer into the center of the shot and makes them wonder what this shot is of. You should be proud of this shot. It is very original and reminds me of something out of Donnie Darko.

I really like how u took your holiday theme to the extreme. It is very colorful and when u put in glowing edges in really has the picture show. I like how u have the objects in the picture pull into the middle of the picture. overall a great pic.

this pix is soOoOoOo good. the lines that are glowing make it very interesting. It is a little out of focus but that is ok because that blur on the right side kind of looks like a civil war ghost. i really like the colors, too.

I think this picture is pretty much amazing!!!
I love how the lights are so squiggly and crazy.
I wouldn’t change one thing about it.

This is a really neat picture. I love the different colors in the glowing rows. It's a very nice contrasting pattern. You can hardly see anything else though. I can sort of make out the outline of the snowman and the house, but I wish that at least the snowman was more visible. Other than that, great picture! Shane-SPHS
