These are all visual lie pictures that were assigned to me in my photography class. Each of these images I took with my camera. The third image is a collage of images I took from the Internet and compiled them into one canvas through photoshop. 

First image 

The focus of the image is putting together a photo of the same subject multiple times from a fixed vantage point of a scene that is a controlled environment. As the image demonstrates, Alexa is posing five different times, in five different spots near the rock at the Botanical Garden. Although there is no message in this visual lie # 1, the visual does manipulate the content of the image and that is using one subject multiple times in one confine location. The image does not convey a message, but does show the repetition of a subject while the camera is at a fixed location. 

Second image

The focus of the image was putting together a photo of multiple subjects from a “fixed vantage point of a scene that is a un-controlled environment where the people or objects are not in your control and are moving without your direction.” In the image, I placed the camera and pressed the shutter button trying to capture and observe what the people were doing and looking at as they walked past the orchids in the Botanical Garden. The visual manipulation that I am using helped me convey my message by adding as many subjects in the image with the brush tool. Although I really do not have a specific message that I am trying to tell to the viewers, using the brush tool to include more people in the picture was very useful.
