Week 14 Slideshow-"My Fabulous Friends" (final)

For my final project, I wanted to show all of the animal friends that I have had throughout my life, from childhood to now. I tried to accomplish this by showing myself in some pictures getting older and older. I tried to show the animals that had great impact on my life, but also I tried to keep in mind that this was a photography assignment. I was looking for certain aspects in the photographs or at least ones that I could manipulate. At first, I thought, oh this will not be hard. I cannot say it was actually hard, but I wanted to be thorough and then I became obsessed with wanting to get it just right. I'm hoping the captions will not take away from the slideshow. I kept adding a little bit more information to them as I continued to check the rubric. The hardest part of this whole assignment was really making the GIMP tools work for me. I would have this idea in my head as to what I wanted the pictures to look like, and then...it would not seem to come out right. I did a lot of adjusting and readjusting. This was a very gratifying assignment, as I looked back and remembered some very special moments with my fabulous friends.

Thanks,
