Picture 292

So, this is part two of a three part project.
Click here to go see part one if you missed it.
I go explain what the project is about.
I'll go over it again.

I'm in the middle of The Mirror Project.
Take a half of an image of and flip it, then line it back up with the other half.
That was a rough explanation....
You can see what I mean in the picture above.
This project might go longer after next week.
I need something to do for my pictures while my family and I move to a new house.
I don't want to have a dead spot of pictures because we are packing or moving.
The move isn't happening right away though, but it is....?
That didn't make senses.
My mom came home with a bunch of boxes today.
It's been at a point where we might move, and we might not.
But, last week we finally made an offer on a house.
So, we are getting close.
I have a special video that I plan to make before we leave about....something.
That video will also include other things.
I can never have the right day to film it.
It's raining right now. :-\
I'll get it done.....I hope.
I did make another video today that's a lead up to what's to come.
But that's at the end of the posts. :-P
Let's move on to the picture.
I made this one when I was mowing my Grandmother's yard.
It was hot and I was dying.
So, I was sitting in the shade under a kiwi tree.
I sat there and thought, "this would be a nice picture".
Me...sitting....in a cool area.
I HAVEN'T DONE THAT BEFORE!
So, I went with it and then continued mowing.
In the coloring part, I wanted this one to look more interesting than last week's picture.
I made then back to back so I knew how to make it different.
Sharp edges and high contrast.
I did throw in a little saturation to make the color POP!
I got everything done quick and easy, which gave me more time to focus on the mirroring part.
This one was tricky.
I wanted it to be different from the last one.
So, I though "I haven't mirror me in the picture".
As in, my body wasn't being affected by the mirroring and it had two complete me's.
I tried having the mirror start at my elbow, but that looked too weird.
I wanted to save the weirdness for next week's picture.
Anyways, I decided to go up the edge of the chair.
It made it look cool.
The trees also had nice designs in it.
No matter which way I did, I always saw a face in the middle.
That happens a lot with this type of stuff.
You can see a bunch if you look closely.
I do always feel like someone is watching me.
HAHA!
Oh, let's compare somethings!

Hover your mouse (the computer one :-P) over the original picture to see the after editing one.
If you're on a touchscreen device, just tap on the picture. You may have to tap more than once.

Now look at the before and after of the mirroring.

AMAZING!!
It turned out nice.
It's a set up from last week and a build up to next week.
The trees made a lovely design in the shadows.
You could tell it was hot and I was melting.
The colors POP and it looks lovely.
It is a bit wider than normal.
My pictures are usually more of a 4:3 ratio.
This one ended up more of a 16:9.
It's not a bad thing though.
Ok. TIME FOR A VIDEO!
Well....videos.
I said earlier that I did make a video that follows up to the big video.
But, before that video was another follow up video.

You can CLICK HERE to see the video or watch it below. 

Now the next video moves forward just a little bit more.
Building up to what id to come....If I ever have a chance to make it.

You can CLICK HERE to see the video or watch it below. 

Wasn't that interesting?
I have the plan for the next and final video in my brain.
But things just keep getting in the way.
Either it's the weather or the church kids running around or my life!
I can't put things on hold.
Anyways! That's all I have.
Oh, there's is on last thing.
I made this three week picture series all at the same time in the same 30 minute BTS video.

COME BACK NEXT WEEK FOR PART THREE!!!
