This week I took pictures of some plants that I planted at work and around my home. Along with a few mushrooms I found growing in my backyard. For most of the pictures I used the macro setting but for some I used a setting on my camera called Super Macro, which is for when you have your lens anywhere from less than an inch to 11.8 inches from your subject that your photographing. As for the software I used for the collage, I used Microsoft Research AutoCollage. It's a trial version software that you can download. I like it a lot better than all the other collage software I've found, because it allows you choose which picture is the main focus and move outward from the center of the collage with the rest of your images. It has a few other features that are basic, but I really like how it blends the pictures together rather than having white framing around each image. The only downside is in the trial version you have a company watermark that takes up a little bit of space at the bottom.

Week 2
The photo above is my favorite of all the pictures I took of this rock tower someone had built in front of the small cave. From the perspective of a low front angle, the rock tower looks larger than it really is and it also covers the large entrance into the cave. I guess I'd have to call this "The Bug's Eye View", simply because to a bug this point-of-view makes it seem quite the climb to the top.
The second photo is from a side angle. This angle didn't really capture an amazing image, but it gives you an idea of the actual size of the rock tower and a different view of the color of the rocks from the side compared to the front image at the beginning of this post.
