Extra Credit diptych 2

Extra Credit diptych 1

These pictures were taken in downtown Portland.  I edited them in Lightroom to bring out the shapes in each picture.  I think that these are the most interesting shots because they show more than one type of shape and they are unusual.

This is my triptych of a statue in downtown Portland.  I brightened the colors and turned the clarity up in Lightroom.

This is my diptych of my aunt's dog. I liked this picture because they are of the same subject, but the point of view of the camera is different in each picture.
