Selective Color

for this assignment, we had to take 5 portraits. my subjects include Maddison, Rachel, Siham, Locy and one self-portrait. Luckily for me, all my friends were cooperative and willing to be a little silly. for the next step of the project, we had to do selective color (picked only one or two things that wouldn't be black and white.) for this first two photos I had my friends hold up a piece of this blue plastic sheet stuff in front of there face. for the next photo, I highlight the hijab because even without the grayscale the yellow popped. I especially like how that one came out because all the other compositional rules that went into it. after that we have lucy holding some markers, naturally, I chose to highlight the makers, but I feel like the photo isn't very strong. last, we have my self-portrait. I had previously taken a different photo but I didn't have any good colors to highlight so I choose to retake it. the one posted is of me holding an LGBT+ flag across my face. I choose the flag because it was bright and had all the colors in it.
