Trinity Mystery Picture

The location I chose is a place I pass every Tuesday and Thursday on the way to class. You might be passing this area if you are going to be doing something more physical than using paper and a pen. The school mascot proudly stands and watches. I messed with the original photo in Picnik by turning up the saturation and contrast. I also altered the color settings to give it a warmer look. Then I added some random, silly-looking doodles. I finally added one of the "sticker" doodle creatures and gave him a thought bubble to show his confusion by the appearance of the tiger. I think this is a rather cool location on campus and it is a nice way for me to begin the day when I go to this class. There was not any particular reasoning for the edits, but I do enjoy intensifying the colors in photos to almost make them surreal. I thought the tiger lent itself very nicely to goofy doodles.

  2. Changing the saturation and color gives the photo a glow that makes the tiger statue really stand out. I believe this is the Tiger statue outside the entrance to the Bell Athletic Center?
