In the group I am the only one who is familiar with using Photoshop, and I am the only one who have the app in my computer, therefore I am the one who edit the picture with Photoshop. Beside that I am also translating the email message into Chinese, because I am the only one who know how to speak Chinese in our group. I learn a lot of new skill in using Photoshop; I learn a lot of other skill in using Photoshop. Before I only know how to crop the picture, and paste it in other file, however now I can crop the picture using the magic wand to get different kind of line, also I now can add colors to the face to make the people look more handsome and pretty. I can Photoshop the pimples off from the picture by using Photoshop. In this project I …show more content…
CMYK stands for cyan, magenta, yellow and black. RGB and CMYK is a color system. RGB and CMYK are both different kinds of color plate. They are differentiating by the color you can touch and the color you can’t touch. Apple is red and those are the color you can touch. That color you can’t touch is produced by light, such as your computer. Colors that are made by light are also count in the color system too”. When RGB mixed together it will create white light. RGB is made out of light. They are the color light. RGB is the computer color. RGB is the color on the computer you see. CMYK is the color you see when you print picture. When you mix all the color of CMYK, you will get black. It is important because when you edit and see the color in the computer it is showing RGB color, but then your printer print CMYK color. Therefore if you are going to print the paper, it is important to change your color from RGB to CMYK. If you print your color in RGB, it will appear differently and this is important because it could ruin your photograph. Therefore for my project if I need to print my webpage, I should change the color form RGB to CMYK. 3. What is the Golden Ratio and how is it useful in editing photos? (Who discovered the Golden Ratio? How has the Golden Ratio been used? What elements of design are concerned with the use of the Golden …show more content…
Golden Ratios is 1.6180339887498948420 … the number will still keep going on and on. Golden Ratios is like the pi, which have infinity umber behind. The person who invented the golden ratios is called Martin Ohm. He invented in the year 1835. Golden Ratios has a lot of contribution to photography. The golden ratio is a very powerful tool for composition. It is based on the ratios of 1 to 1.618. The way you can find the golden ratios is to multiply one side with the golden ratios 1.618, and then you will get a shape that will please your eye. The golden ratios can help create the image that have very good composition and will attract the views to the picture. The reason that it will attract the viewer is because the composition is perfectly balanced so it creates a picture that is very pleasing to the people’s eye. As a human we like to look at picture that is pleasing to our eye, and golden rations is there to do so. Golden ratios have also been called the matured number; because the entire object that is from nature have the golden ratios in it. Everything you see in the nature has the golden ratios; the flower, the seashell, and so on. The Golden ratios has been used in many famous artwork too, for example Da Vinci’s Mona Lisa, Pyramids of Giza, they all has the Golden Ratios in it.

I am currently an English 160 student who is hoping to move on to the next course, which is English 161. I understand the requirements for English 161. It require students to explore a topic in some depth and conduct independent research related to that topic. Conducting research allows students to learn what it is like to participate in academic culture, posing questions about important issues and developing an argument in response to what others have said. It expected students to learn the most valuable skill in college, which is critical thinking. Students have to be able to read challenging readings. Although I still have problems with English, I think I’m qualified to move on.
Nevertheless, that day followed me, and I tried to understand more about fractals through the resources I already had at my disposal-- through courses I was taking. Sophomore year, through my European History and Architecture courses, I learned about many ancient architectural feats-- Stonehenge, the Pyramids of Giza, the Parthenon, many Gothic Cathedrals, and the Taj Mahal-- and that they all somehow involved the use of the golden ratio. I will come back to how this relates to fractals later in the article, but for now know that each of these buildings use different aspects of their design to form the golden ratio. I was intrigued by the fact that fractals, what seemed to be something only formed by the forces of nature, were being constructed by human hands. Although I wanted badly to find out more, I waited until that summer, when I discovered a YouTube account by the name of Vihart. Vihart’s videos are not tutorials on how to do math, however Vihart’s ramblings about the nature and the concepts of the mathematical world have a lot of educational value, especially on topics that are more complicated to understand then to compute. Her videos on fractal math and their comparability to nature, helped to show me that...
In the painting Castle and Sun, Klee was able to use three samples of geometric shapes to create his entire metropolis and applied excess space to design a skyline for his sun. Even though the shapes used consisted of miscellaneous versions of triangles and squares/rectangles to create the “castle” that stands beneath a wildly contrasted sun which stands as a focal point by being the only circle in the entire painting. In reference to the sun, the principle of proportion was used by the existence of a single circle larger than any other single shape within the painting that draws your attention to it which further supports the emphasis of the object.
Throughout the recent years, Photoshop has become a widespread phenomenon amongst the world. With the rapidly developing inventions of camera’s and devices with cameras on them; posting pictures on social media has become extremely popular. Along with that, the pressure to appear perfect in said pictures has increased dramatically. Society has become exceedingly focused on the idea of perfect, and what perfect looks like. Especially now, with growing photo sharing phone applications such as Instagram, photo editing is becoming even more popular. Photoshop has proven to have many beneficial uses; however, it also has very negative consequences such as false perceptions, and misleading people.
The theory of photography originated from the discovery of the camera obscura phenomenon – light that enters a darkened chamber through a small hole is projects an identical inverted image on the interior wall of the outside scene. The first recordings of scientists recognizing this concept was in the writings of Greek philosopher, Aristotle (384 – 322 BC).
A successful civilization is portrayed though art; it is a luxurious pastime that shows wealth and time. During the Renaissance, the production of art was long-standing. New techniques and characteristics emerged as well as masterpieces that were made by some of the most influential artists in history. During the Gothic and Romanesque periods, the techniques used for art were not as realistic as the Renaissance; they were flat, one-dimensional, and unproportional. During the Renaissance however, the concept of proportion, perspective, chiaroscuro and sfumato was formed. Proportion is the technique of having a greater understanding of portraying objects or people accurately. Marcus Vitruvius Pollio was a Roman author, architect, mathematician and doctor who described the ideal proportions of a human during his time. He set out certain measurements and values of the human body, for example the pa...
is convergent and ends up converging to φ, the golden ratio [2]. This curious quantity is just a ratio, so what makes it so special? Why is it so mystifying? While the other major constant in mathematics, pi, is a ratio between a circle's circumference and its diameter, phi (φ) considers a rectangle with height, h, and width, w, and forms the following ratio:
As many composers of his day, Webern very often constructed his compositions with the golden ratio in mind. “The golden ratio, also known...

...on of light and the rays are proportions in the Fibonacci sequence. Fibonacci relationships are found in the periodic table of elements used by chemists. Fibonacci numbers are also used in a Fibonacci formula to predict the distant of the moons from their respective planets. A computer program called BASIC generates Fibonacci ratios. “The output of this program reveals just how rapidly and accurately the Fibonacci ratios approximate the golden proportion” (Garland, 50). Another computer program called LOGO draws a perfect golden spiral. Fibonacci numbers are featured in science and technology.
My thoughts on my photograph being taken in particular have changed drastically over time. When I was younger, I literally gave no thought to my photo being taken, I barely even remember them being taken. When I look at the photographs of my childhood, I remember the moment in which they were taken, but I don't remember the photo actually being taken. Now I always know when someone is taking a picture of me, sort of like a sixth sense. I think the reason behind that is that when I was younger I loved my photo being taken and now I hide from the camera. Mostly because of insecurities and knowing how quickly a photo can travel now through the internet and social media.
Much like Benjamin Franklin believed, I feel that a person should take advantage of the time the person has in life with activities a person wants to do or needs to do. A person should not spend much time on activities the person does not want to do. Life is way too short to concern oneself with work or other activities one wants nothing to do with all the time. When possible, I try to forget about my responsibility and just let go of the ‘things’ that do not matter to me. I think a person should try to occupy oneself with something productive, worthwhile, or necessary at all times. Even though a person’s life is left up to a person to live, I cannot imagine thinking that I owe my time to society through working a job that I simply despise. I am a compassionate person, but I do not owe anyone anything regarding my time.
Throughout the centuries, artists have used the golden ratio in their own creations. An example is “post” by Picasso. When using a golden mean gauge you can see that the lines are spaced to the Golden Proportion.
In conclusion, there are so many uses and aspects of the Golden Ratio and Golden Rectangle. Since they have been first used three thousand years ago, it has continued to be a major part of modern design. There is so many examples of this ratio in the world that it is impossible to ignore. The beauty of this ratio in art, architecture, nature is phenomenal. The Golden Ratio and Golden Rectangle will continue being a major part of mathematics for a very long time. Most of the world today has been shaped by these concepts, and will continue to shape the future.
