The idea for this assignment came from the environment around me! It has clearly started to get colder and the christmas music has started to make its appearance.  I thought the perfect assignment would be to take an old photo, preferably one from the summer or spring and convert it into a winter themed photo, snowman and all!!!

To create the example for this assignment I found a picture that was taken over the summer of my friend and I.

I then uploaded the picture onto picmonkey.com and used such editing tools as winterizer, where it added snow, gloves, hats, and a snowman to the picture. I then adjusted the color of the photo to make it look colder. I did this by lowering the “temperature” of the photo, which can be done under the color edit link in picmonkey.com.  The end product was a winterized summer photo that now prepares me slightly for winter!

The assignment details include:
Winterize it! (Not given stars yet)

Take a picture from summer and winterize it! Using photoshop or an online photo editor such as picmonkey.com lighten the color to make the temperature appear cooler, add scarves, snow flakes, or even a snowman! Use your imagination and take a photo from another season and turn it into a winter theme to prepare for the winter season ahead.
