And the views are coming from 4 different states including: Massachusetts, New York, Vermont, and Connecticut. The majority of the views are coming from Woburn, Mass.

WWF

In this assignment, I recreated a WWF add. To do this I opened the photo of the forest then placed the patterns of cheetah and tiger on top of the trees. I then lowered the opacity, so that the texture would show more clearly. I also burned the edges to get a more natural look by giving the trees a shadow. This could be useful in much of advertising today. This allows you be able to place any and fade it so that it is not as noticeable, this is a good technique for blending. It is a catchy but subtle way to catch the attention of the people looking at your advertisement. It is a good technique that I have learned in photoshop. It is a useful way to blend and merge photos together. 

Merging Photos

Today in photoshop, we learned how to merge photos together. This can be very useful for making things such as brochures or postcards. They also can be used for any way of making something seem as if it is one picture. You can make the merging look more realistic by blending the edges.

Exploding Carrot

Today in photoshop, I learned how to merge two pictures together by lying the dynamite on top of the carrots and erasing parts that would lie on top of the carrots. To make it look more realistic I brightened the dynamite by making it redder. I also learned how to use the dodge and burn tool, which allowed me to lighten and darken different parts of the picture.

Google

Google is changing the way we are able to find things on the internet. There are so many different parts of google. However one thing that I find really interesting is google shopping. If you are looking for something in particular, it can be really helpful. If you search a brand or a specific clothing, you can find such a variety of different websites. The websites have a large selection and can help you narrow your search. It also shows a variety of prices to narrow your search. There also many advertisements related to your search on the side bar.

Google also has many shortcuts that are really helpful. For example instead of searching for a website for the weather forecast, you simple type weather: (and your zip code hear). Also if you need to define a word, instead of going to a website such as dictionary.com, you can simple type in google, define: (and the word you are searching the definition of). There are many different short cuts and interesting ways to navigate the web, thanks to google. But one really cool way that google is helping navigate around the world is through google maps. Google Maps are able to give you a view of all streets, similar to any map. But it can also show a street view from the map. This can be very helpful for finding destinations, or just looking at places you have never been. Google has changed from an ordinary search, in to something much larger.
