Light**

9:30 PM
I took twice as many photos to get a good picture at night than I did during the other times of the day. I used night mode on my camera, I found it very difficult to hold the camera steady enough so that the picture was not blurry. I like how the closer lights in the photo are blurry, but most of all I like how the snowflakes are shown.
5 PM
This wasn't my favorite out of the pictures taken at this time period, but this one exentuates the color difference between the morning and afternoon lighting.
7 AM
In this photo the lighting makes it look cold. It was early morning and there is nothing warm about being awake on a early February morning.

Complementary Color Scheme


I had no idea what to take pictures of for this color scheme. So... I went to the store and spent time in the produce section. I love how bright the colors are in this picture!

Monochrome Color Scheme


I chose this photo for the monochrome color scheme because it fits the requirements of monochrome but mostly because I really like how you can see the sun through the clouds. It hadn't been out all day, and when it finally came out I took a lot of pictures but didn't think that it was going to be clear.

Compare and Contrast




This is an old abandoned house about a mile from where I live. I took several pictures in color and also some in Black and white. I like the black and white pictures much more. I think the black and white brings out the harshness of the winter and intensifies how "creepy" it really is. Out of the two photos I like the one on the bottom better. I'm not sure exactly why, it's just the angle and I like that it doesn't show the road. It looks more old fashioned.
