The strongest technical aspect of my work is my sky. I originally had a different sky with more colors like purple and pink and it was going into night time, just not exactly there yet. Although i liked my old sky it was interesting putting a new one in. It wasn't as hard as i thought and i feel like this one looks better in with my theme and the little island in the back with all the lights glaring off the water. If there was a way that i could've worked on and changed the look of the boat in the water i would have. I want it to look more realistic, having waves or bumpy water below the cruise ship. The easiest part of this art activity was putting my palm trees in and making them different sizes to look more realistic. The most difficult part of this assignment shockingly was just finding the right picture and being able to find something to put as a foreground in the photo. I had dragged over at least 6 different tropical photos trying to find the right pieces to stick in in front of it and for me it was hard. Normally i am good at that type of stuff and i have a good eye for that. I demonstrated the objective in this assignment by creating a mask to for one make my sky different and i also created different foregrounds. If i could do this activity again i would add more grass over to were the palm trees are. There isn't much and it looks somewhat fake.
Kyrsten, Photoshop will get easier with experience. You did a great job creating a foreground, middle ground, and background. The great thing about using the layer mask is that your original sky is still there if you were to change your mind. Non-destructive editing is much better than erasing or deleting images,
