The Life of AJ
In this image I am trying to convey main features of my life. The shoes are my running spikes and this represents my passion for running as I have been a runner for 7 years. The dog is my pet chihuahua, Manny, who is one of the main sources of joy in my life. The license plate that reads "SEASIDE" is the name of the town I lived in in Florida for 12 years before moving to Michigan a year and a half ago. I mainly used the erase tool to put these images together. All of these things are three very important aspects of me.

Taste of Home
The main difference between my 5 Layer Selfie and my Double Exposure is how much more focused the Double Exposure is. At the beginning of the trimester, I was very stressed about college applications and decisions, and wanting to make sure my grades were good. Now, at the end of the trimester, I have finished all of my applications and I have been accepted to 4 colleges, and I am not worried too worried about what I am doing next year. The layers in my Selfie are still important, but I included what was most important in an aesthetically pleasing way. I chose to use a picture of the pond that is behind my house because after living very close to the ocean in Florida for 12 years, I was very connected to it, and moving away from it was very strange. But, now that there is a body of water in my backyard, regardless of the size, I feel like I am at home.
