Digital Photography Blog: Michael Saccio

For Project 6, Michael Saccio and I worked on a project by taking photos of an important space for not only Portland but something that is relevant to Lincoln High School. As part of this project we had to take multiple photos and piece them together to create a collage of our space. Michael and I chose to work on KGW which is right next door to Lincoln High School.

    Project Seven      This project showcases three different techniques that I have learned in class, sourced for outside of school, and edited back in class.      The first technique is multiple exposure. Multiple exposure is the layering of dissimilar images in hopes of making one image that is lit evenly across the entire digital canvas. Generally they are done using photos that are different but still similar in lighting and theme so that they can show different angles, but still hold a sense of commonality. In my case, I used images that were very similar and merged them in a way that didn't allow for anything that wasn't overlapped, much like and HDR.      The second technique is a panorama. A panorama is a picture designed to extend further than common aspect ratios- horizontally or vertically. In my case, both panoramas that will be shown have been created by me, after the original photos have been taken.      The final technique is high dynamic range or HDR. Th
