Daguerrotype

A daguerrotype is a photograph taken by an early process employing an iodine-sensitized silvered plate and mercury vapor. Though this isn't an actual daguerrotype, I used photoshop to edit the photo and give it the look of a daguerrotype. I took this photo at the Farmer's Market of several bouquets of flowers. It works well as the daguerrotype photo because flowers are timeless, so even though I took this photo recently, it could have been taken in any era.

Tilt Shift

This is a photo edited to look like a tilt shift photo, which changes the viewer's perspective, making the scene look like a small model. I took this photo from the Vista Bridge of downtown Portland. It was one of the few pictures I had taken from this angle, so I'm glad it worked well as the tilt shift photo. The bright colors help it work, because it looks almost plastic, like a model city. I increased the contrast to emphasize the colors.
