New Photo Group, New Assignments

Okay, so I know I'm getting these in kind of late, but I thought I should post them anyway. Also, I'm sad to say that I don't think I did the assignments quite right, but hey, I tried. So here is my work. Let me know what you think.

I took a little field trip with my family to Pike's Place Market. That's where the pictures for Assignment #1 were taken.

Assignment #1: Before & After Shots using the LCD Screen to improve the pictures.

Assignment #2: This is the assignment I didn't do correctly. Sorry. I simply took the same picture over and over using a different JPEG size, but I forgot to change the quality. Oops or in the words of my 1 1/2 year old, "uh oh". Oh well. That is probably why I didn't really see a difference in the pictures I took. Next time I should re-read my instructions more closely.

I took these at a park in Pioneer Square. The pictures were taken in order where the first is the biggest JPEG size and then it descends to the smallest size.

Assignment #3: JPEG Deterioration

Honestly, after completing this assignment, I zoomed into both photos and I couldn't see a difference in the quality. So then I tried to deteriorate the quality even further by doing it for an additional 10 saves. Still, I couldn't see a difference. However, I probably just did the assignment wrong and that is why I couldn't tell the difference. I wouldn't put it past me.
