This past weekend I went on a camping trip with my family and close friends. Good thing I brought my camera because there wasn't a moment where a picture could be taken. We floated the Missouri River, took the ATV's out for a ride, and did a little surfing in the cold lake(Canyon Ferry).  I titled this "Camping Journey" because that is what it was. We explored hundreds of miles that we never have before. We got to watch sunsets and experience many laughs.  My inspiration for taking these pictures was as simple as just having a love for the outdoors. Nature entails so many unique things, some even unimaginable.  I took all these pictures on the same camera settings. I decided to bring them home and edit each one individually. I think each picture that I took has a special meaning behind it, at least for me anyways.   

 For this image, I decided to turn it to black and white. The outdoors always inspires me to take pictures. As beautiful as nature's natural colors are. The black and white make the photo more intense. I decided to add a mountainous look through the trees. Throughout the process of choosing this photo, I played with the contrast editing setting. I tried to focus on myself more than anything. When editing, it started to become blurry, so I decided to keep everything at normal settings.  For this image, I wanted my subject to be my brother and my dad. I took this photo before this class started but it is one of my favorite photos.  In this image, I used my cousins as the subject. The lense is very focused on the oar of the boat, which I think makes the picture that much better. This was taken near Melrose, MT.

  My sister is graduating from Butte High School this week! I decided to capture some pictures of her in her cap and gown. In these photo's, I mostly played with the contrast editing. In a few of the pictures i played with the brightness as you can tell some pictures are brighter than others. Exposure setting was left 0-5 on all pictures.
