Borders

"Yellow Flower"
Date: April 27; Location: BYU-I ; F/stop and Shutter Speed: 8.0; 1/250.  After creating a layer mask I played around with different brush strokes and I found a fun one.  After  using the brush to bring back the picture I added text and changed the color of it. 

"Engagements"
Date: April 5; Location: Lehi, UT; F/stop and Shutter Speed: 3.1; 1/150. I wanted to try a border for my engagement pictures and thought a black and white with a vignette would look good. After creating a new layer I used the rectangular Marquee and highlighted the section I wanted visible. I lowered the opacity just a little, but I wanted the edges dark to focus on us.

"Hotel Meade"
Date: May 25; Location: Bannack, MT; F/stop and Shutter Speed: 10.0; 1/250. This picture is similar to the flower shot where I  made  a layer mask and used a brush to reveal the parts of the picture I want show. 

Scanography

"Bananagrams"
Date: June 4, Camera: Scanner.  This game is a multiplayer  speed scrabble.   My friends and I really enjoy this game so this picture is a tribute to them. I tried to make it a black background but I really struggled with it, but white works also.  

"Cards"
Date: June 4, Camera: Scanner.  On my mission I collected many different types of playing cards.  The reason I have so many different cards was for a game called 'Nerts' which is a speed solitaire game.  I mixed red and blue cards together and laid them on the scanner. I also scanned many different cards and cut them out of their picture and pasted them to the main picture.

Date: June 4, Camera: Scanner.   Most of the cards I used came from this picture.   I used the quick tool to highlight them, then cut them out of the picture and pasted them to the main picture.
