Kaleidoscope

Kaleidoscope

I chose an image and cropped a certain section.
I then increased the canvas size to 200 percent larger and moved the image to the top left corner .




I then use cmd, alt and J together to copy the layer. Also by naming the layers it helps to know which piece should be where















This was so I could flip the copied layer horizontal through Edit > Transform > flip Horizontal. Then move the new layer into the space next to the original.
















This is the original image that I used to create a kaleidoscope effect of the image. 













I then repeated this process until the whole frame was filled. Next I could merge visible all of the layers for a single image. This photo to the left is this process once. The following photos are the same process carried out again. 


I repeated this process to make the image more interesting. I think the more times it is done the more it looks like a kaleidoscope enlarged.

Shutter Speed and Aperture

Image
Shutter speed & Aperture  Below is a contact sheet of my shutter speed and aperture photos. From these photos I chose the best examples of each.  Shutter speed The shutter speed is how long the shutter is open for. It is recorded as a fraction of a second. It also controls how much light enters the lens as the longer it is open the more light enters. a large fraction such as, 1/1000 means the camera will capture the image quickly freezing motion. A small fraction such as, 1/4 means the shutter is slow and produces movement lines. This is often used for waterfall and sky movement photos. Today I went out and shot some images with the camera on the shutter priority mode, to experiment with a fast and a slow shutter speed. I used the slow shutter speed of 1/4 to get movement line and a less sharp image. The image below is an example of my slow shutter speed image.  the materials I used were a Nikon D3200 and some models to present an example...
