HDR (High Dynamic Range)
I created this image by taking multiple images of the same thing but with different exposure. I brought a tripod with me, to prevent a blur on the photo when it came to a very slow shutter speed. Once I have my shots I imported it into light room. I selected the images and merge to HDR in Photoshop. After merging it into an HDR I shifted the tone curve of the Image. As you can see in the picture above the middle left part of the image is darker than the other places. I did this on purpose to make the building stand out more. Same with the stairs on the building, they are brighter than its surroundings. This gives a very cool feeling of the image. I find this image a bit surreal.

Panorama
This image was created by taking 6 portrait format pictures and merging them into Photoshop. I used a tripod for this image and a manual setting with a shutter speed of 1 second and aperture of 23. The ISO was around 200. I tried to overlap each image by 40% but sometimes I made mistakes which caused me to do it again. I chose a mode of spherical for the mode of my panorama. I then cropped the image cause there were white laps, but still didn't get rid of all of the white laps. I then used perspective wrap to achieve my goal to have no white spaces in the photo. And the final out come was this. The reason I didn't add any filters to this photo is because I like the original copy of it, and how it reminds us what reality is.

Panorama
The first step to create this image was to pick a subject and I happened to choose the city landscape from the Hawthorn Bridge. Starting from the left I took 6 images that overlap each other. The images I took for this panorama were in landscape form. I was forced to go into manual because I have to have the exact same settings for each image, which is also one of the reasons why I used a tripod. Later on I imported this into light room and merged to panorama photoshop. I chose spherical for the template layout. At first the out come of this image wasn't very good, it was unevenly distributed at the top and bottom of the photo. This made me crop the image to get rid of most of the white spaces. The next step was that I went into perspective wrap to edit this photo. I adjusted the image so that it looks proportionally even. The final step of editing this photo was I added some contrast and saturation to it. I decreased the temperature so that it would give a colder mood.

Multiple Exposure
This photo was created by taking 3 images and then combing them in Photoshop. One picture was of the city landscape which you can see the American flag on top of the building. The other photo was just a picture of the river and the third image is about the suburbs at the bottom. I combined this image in photoshop. I like this photo because its evenly distributed, how the dock matches the city and the suburbs.

Multiple Exposure
This image was created by taking multiple picture and combing them together. I combined 3 photos, two pictures of the bridge and another one of the city. This image was created in Photoshop. At first it gave me a very bazaar look, so I tried fiddling with the tone of the image to make it better. I tried toning it green but it still didn't give me a satisfying look. Black and white was what made this image stand out.
