So as i edit these photos i’ve taken, i realize how broad my idea was to begin with, which made narrowing down the original plan to make it practical..

I bought three new hotwheels from Toy r’ Us and began my manipulated series journey.First of all, it looks a lot easier when Suzi showed us photoshop in class, as i am a first time user, it took me a little longer then i expected to fimilarize myself with the program than i anticipated. So after many hours of struggling, and becoming more and more fustrated with my ideas, i finally narrowed down what it is exactly that i will be debating to print for next class.

FIRST series -

traffic lights in rural areas  – i think this idea is the weakest, but regardless ill share it. I have many pictures of winnipeg and the rural areas and beachs around there so my idea was to place a traffic light in each one of these scenes and go from green to red.

SECOND series-

The mirror images – with hot wheels!!

the driver’s sidemirror – then the rear view – and finally end with the passenger sideview mirror with the text “objects are closer then they appear”

- all of these images would have hotwheels in them – just to suggest that time goes by quickly and somewhat of a childish twist with hot wheels in the mirrors kinda to represent looking back.

THIRD series- Hand holding hot wheels … with a cityscape. (New York Central Park)

Have and enhanced version of the front windows of each of the hot wheels with a hand holding them – then because i bought three different colours of hot wheels in different styles, i enhanced the colour of each of them to make the distorted image really bright. Then after doing this I realized that it would be way cooler to kinda follow up with the first traffic light idea with the car colour as well. But since i orginally purchased a green, yellow and white car, that would be re-shooting another car in red.

I hope these descriptions make sense … for now its back to the drawingboard.
