Cierra+Walls

Photography by: **CIERRA A.K.A. C-ROCK **

I made this image about two or three years ago as a memorial for my cousin Stevie (his full name and the dates will be added later) who died over in the war in Iraq. This consists of three overlapping images (the one of me, the one of the twin towers, and the one of the eagle) and a text box. My personal favorite part about this particular picture is the way it all blends together so well. I also enjoy the fact that the text doesn't distract the viewers eye too much and/or take attention away from the other parts of the picture. (Editor Used: Triscape FXfoto) (note: the images of the twin towers and the eagle are not mine. they were found online.)

This photograph was taken to represent line in the Art Elements and Design Principles Scavenger Hunt. I chose this one as my favorite because something about the angle of the picture just draws me into it. I love the mysterious feeling I get when I look at this particular image.

Five Qualities of Award Winning Photographs: Contrast. I chose this image because it's fun. I like how we played with shadows to show what we needed to show in a different way.

This is the color image for the Compositional Devices photo-shoot. This photography actually has sentimental value to me. When I saw the clouds in the sky like that I instantly thought of my mother (RIP) so I took the shot until I got it right. I love how it turned out.

This is David modeling for the environment image for the Looking Deeper Into the Process assignment. I chose this picture because I think it's funny and definitely a memorable moment (Kodak moment, if you will).

This is the final result of our back lighting image for the Lighting Type photo-shoot. David helped me out with holding the light, and even though you can see the light in the picture I like it. It looks old fashioned to me, and for some reason it seems like its from a commercial.

This is my digitally enhanced image.
