To respond to the somewhat tense discussion we had in class today-- the flag does not have to be destroyed if it touches the ground, but it must be moved so it no longer touches things beneath it or the ground. It is to avoid it becoming soiled or damaged. While I try to understand the position of those who do not hold this symbol sacred, I also hope that as American's we respect that the flag is very important to many people for different reasons, and that in itself is a tolerance that should be considered. Few citizens agree with everything America has done or is currently doing, but we enjoy many rights and freedoms as citizens, and we have the right to protest those things we don't agree with.

This is how I found out to do the levitation thing a couple years ago.

For my independent project, I want to do photos like this. Making illusions of my models floating in the air. This was done with no photoshop, really good photographer Tyler Shields.

This tutorial is a self portrait of someone floating in the middle of a hallway, uses a chair then erases it with a brush tool in adobe photoshop.

Yay, I like this! I'm excited. :D

We are going to do this as a project next year...

a lot of interesting photo effects and how to do them

Pretty simple and good walkthrough of tips for those trying to do gesture drawings possibly for college portfolios.
