Letters



You would be surprised what you can find in your surroundings when you really look hard enough. Everyday objects become letters from certain angles. The first photograph is a "C". It is a tire mark in the grass from being mowed at Franke park. Using Photoshop I changed the contrast and brightness to try to bring the "C" of the dirt more clear. It is still kind of hard to see unfortunately. The second object is an "A". It is an Ab Lounge machine that is folded up. The third letter is an "N" and is trees in the Franke park woods. The fourth letter is a "D". It is an opening on my printer tray. The fifth letter is an "A". It is the leggs and tail of a figurine giraffe that I held in the air and took a picture of it. The sixth letter is a "C". It is the handle on a black tool box. Finally, the last letter is an "E". It is the metal frame of a ladder. By looking closely at my surroundings, I was able to take photographs to make a "collage", so to speak. With all of the photos, I cropped them to take out extraneous background items. Also, the brightness, contrast, and levels were altered to try to dull out the background and make the "letters" more clear against the background. Finally, all of the photos were combined on a canvas in photoshop to spell out a word.

Very cool work there on the 'name' assignment. The 'N' with the trees I thought was excellent.
