Hey, hey. If you came here because you were linked from my HTML, then welcome! Here are those images I promised:
If you're here for some other reason, that makes sense. I'm pretty sure only Dr. Murray has access to my HTML.Until now. See it below. If you copy and paste it in Notepad and save it then theoretically you should be able to see the actual webpage, but what do I know?

Mini project two was a learning experience but I like the way things turned out. As a Photoshop newbie, I had a few problems that I have now resolved, but it's too little to late. I didn't originally realize that there is an extensive gallery of filters available on Photoshop. I thought I was limited to the few filters that appear when I hit the "Filters" drop-down menu. I was wrong. I could've done so much more with these images.
I do feel like I portrayed my message well. The idea of movement is certainly present in both images, which is great because bikes are known for their movement! I like the way the text bleeds off the edges of the first image. I think it adds a grid-like look, as discussed in Ocepek's "Images." The second image is certainly eccentric, but I like it. For me, it shows the idea that the bikes of the bike sharing come and go as people use and return them. It's the beauty of bike sharing!
I did struggle a lot with the placement of the words in the second image. Even now, I think they just look like they were thrown on top of the image at the last minute. I worked with them a lot, but I couldn't make them look like I wanted them too. The problem may be that I didn't have the words in mind when I was editing the image.
All in all, it was a fun assignment and I learned a lot from it. It was homework I was excited to work on, if that says anything. On to the Unit One Project!
