Difference focus create different feeling

I also took these two pictures in the university when I hang out with my friend ^____^. I tried to shoot at the very low angle (nearly at the ground). the second one is full-focus...everything is sharp except the very-small part of foreground but the first one is different, just the foreground is in focus and everything else is blur. I found out that it's really interesting when people are not those which is in focus and the fact that other thing in focus rather than pple create the very different mood for the picture ^_______^

Perspective

I took this picture sometime ago at the university. I really like the perspective in it. also there is a rhythm which is also rather interesting to me.

Here is another picture that I took. This one is also 'bout perspective...the main line in the middle also create the balance for the whole image

Safe sex poster

This is the poster I did for my assignment. At first I seemed to be stuck because I felt so embarrassed to talk 'bout such topics -_____-...but finally I can get over it ^____^

You can see people in the poster are rather young with that kind of wearing style...not teenager anymore but have just become an adult.....At this age, people are most easily to get idea that
they've actually become real adults, being so much experienced in life...they're not gonna listen to any others' advices but do everything they think it's right.

This poster doesn't aim to "tell" they that they shouldn't have sex because that only can makes them be more curious and try to do it anyway :D :D :D ...but, the poster tell that "no matter how they do, just make sure they use something to protect themselves from things that can hurt them somehow"

Poster

This is one of the posters I found on the internet when I did my research for the assignment 2b. I think this poster is terribly shock with the woman hold the gun in this position. The viewer will directly receive the message about having unsafe sex means killing yourselves.

Photomontage - My self-portrait

This is the piece that I did for my assignment on creating a portrait of myself.

At first I found it's really hard with me to manipulate an image >.< ...not because I cannot do with such technical stuff but because I just get used to take the picture naturally then leave them without any manipulation...I was so clumsy at that time with my computer, my mouse and the pictures of myself :D :D :D. I was stuck with this assignment for a week T___T...

After the lecture that Maddy talked about how self-portrait represent ourselves, I started thinking 'bout my life, my habit, hobbies, my characteristic also. This portrait somehow represents myself, really...actually, another me...that never showed in a normal life...

This portrait is composed by 2 pictures that I took by myself from the high angle with my face at two different position (the original ones look quite ...well, foolish =)) ). I tried to play around with Adjustment in Photoshop (desaturate, brightness and contrast, level, ect.) I also found a tutorial online that guided me how to make an image look like drawing by arranging several layers in different opacity value combined with the filter; then I applied on one of my picture ^___^ (it's the picture on the background).
I use the stamp clone tool to create random pattern on the background: one part of a thing repeated randomly... The foreground is my image with one eye covered by my hair and another eye looking up...Somehow, it represent the mysteriousness and insecureness inside myself but stubborness and self-willed in reaction ^___^...In contrast, I - in the background-image - bows....represent the weakness, the unconfidence and the ...fear (?!)....yeh, that's really another me...I'm looked pretty active, confident and strong as well in the real life but another person in me is so unconfident and weak...Actually I have to "fight" with myself a lot in a real life to act in the "confident way"....luckily, I still can control my feeling T___T
Another element I put on my self-portrait is the water-liked surface...I did this by applying chrome filter on the selected areas..you know, as mature as I got, I hide myself inside more...sometimes, I even felt like I have a millions masks (hey, it's not that I do not live sincerely :D...this is just another aspect ^^) just that, I do not wanna (or afraid of ?!) share my real feeling, my real thinking to the others...that's also the way I protect myself from being hurt (at least I think so :D)

Anyway, as I said before that's another me who is never showed outside, in the real world...therefore, nobody can see or ...check if it's real or not, hehe :))

P/s: I'm not gonna talk about the pattern on my hair :D :D :D...that's just the little thing identifies me which is maybe really...foolish to others :D but...meaningful to me :P....
