thunderstorm final images


For my first image I used a picture of the street that I live on.  I added a few clouds for texture in the sky and I also darkened the sky as well as the clouds to give it a darker look.  I used a picture of a tree and turned it upside down to make it look like lightning by changing the color.  I added a lamp post to the yard and put a patch of grass at its base.  I added a blue-ish gray color to the street to change its look.  



For my second image I used my back yard and the field it connects to.  I used a picture of  cloud and expanded it so that it took up the whole sky instead of having separate clouds.  I made a tree into lightning like I did in my first photo.  I added a light post and a telephone post into the foreground of the image as well.  I put a patch of dirt at the base of the telephone post also.  I changed the color of the shed to a light blue-ish color and also made the lighting-tree more yellow.  I darkened the base and the background of the photo to give it a darker feel that goes along with the theme.

Part IV: Execution

1. Places:  For this part of this project I want to try to get photos of open fields.  With these I could get a dark ominous feel that I want.
2. Textures: Textures that I am going to use for this project are mainly clouds in the sky that I can edit for the final project.  Also pictures of water would be good for this portion of the project.
3. Objects:  I am going to take pictures of power lines and telephone towers as well as electrical wires. These can all be found in the area that I live in.

Part V: Bringing it Together

My goal for the final product of this project is to take an open area and create some sort of storm using the photos that I took.
This product may become somewhat abstract but I want it to be easily understood.
