2. Deep Blue Sea This picture displays the different aspects of the sea that we will be focusing on.

3. Estuarine The first focus is the characteristics of what lies above the sea. This will center around anything above the water including but not limited to: The Beach Seashells Boats Mammals that emerge from the Sea Waves

4. Broad View Waves

5. Broad View Waves Image This picture is a culmination of different aspects of what lies at the surface. It was created using Photoshop, along with the two following images, and applied: Smudge tool Blur tool Cropping Layering

6. Fish Shells and Floating Crab

7. Fish, Shells and Floating Crab Image This image is a bird’s eye view of the shallow water that lies at the shoreline. The main background image remained stationary other than using the blur and smudge tools to blend the other images into it. After layering an image of shells into the upper left portion of the picture and lowering the opacity, the shells appear to be under the water. This same process was used to insert the other small images, such as the crab, within the picture.

8. The Shell Close-Up

9. The Shell Close-Up Image This image displays how shells are made up of many different pieces and layers. I created this image and conveyed this idea by taking several small shells and using them to define one larger shell. These smaller shells were strategically placed to accentuate the multi-dimensional appearance this larger shell has. I also used the brush tool to trace the outlines in the image. This helped the larger shell to maintain its shape and improve its texture.

10. Euphotic This next section will focus on the marine life and fixtures right below the surface. It will be centered around: Whales Penguins Fish Seaweed Crustaceans And a surprise!

11. Fish Bubbles

12. Fish in Bubbles Cut and Paste and resized fish into the Main Pic Altered Opacity to make fish appear to be inside bubble Changed the saturation as well as the brightness of the picture to reach the desired tone

13. Marine Mammal Bubbles

14. Mammals in Bubbles Cut and Paste and resized Animals into the Main Pic Altered Opacity to make animal appear to be inside bubble Changed the saturation as well as the brightness of the picture

15. Sea Plants, Crustaceans, and Special Sponges

16. Sea Plants in Bubbles Cut and Paste and resized sea plants into the Main Pic Altered Opacity to make sea plants appear to be inside bubble Changed the saturation as well as the brightness of the picture Used the liquefy option to alter some of the sea plants Used the filter option to change the final texture of the pic

17. Bathyal This is the middle level of the sea It will be centered around: More mammals Sharks Fish Squid Crabs

19. The Desert of the Sea This slide introduces the bathyal as “the desert of the sea” I used two pictures, one of a desert and the other of undisturbed, empty water, which is what this layer is most of the time In photo shop, I enhance the colors of the two photos to the extreme. I then pasted them together and used the text tool to title the photo.

20. Ferocious Feeding Frenzy

21. This slide shows the feeding frenzy's that are not common, but once they happen many animals flock to the “bait ball” to feed. I used 5 pictures in this slide. In Photoshop, I used the magnetic lasso tool and layering tool to cut and paste the images of the animals on top of the image of the bait ball in the background. I then used the blurring tool to make it look like the animals were moving. When necessary, I enhanced the color to blend the animals into the picture. In the end, I took parts of the background and used the ripple effect to simulate more erratic movement.

22. Creatures of the Semi-Deep

23. Creatures of the Semi-deep This is an informative slide on the creatures of the semi-deep. In power point, I brought up a canvas and made it black. I resized it to fit the image. Then I took images of animals and used the lasso tool to cut and paste them via layer onto the black canvass. I labeled them using the text tool. To see the plankton, I used the draw tool to indicate that they were small and not able to be seen.

24. Abyssal This is the deepest level of the sea The primary focus on this level will show Fish Jellyfish Tube Worms Deep Sea Animals Coral

25. Angry

26. My Angry Angler This shows an infrared view of a deep sea angler fish. I modified through Photoshop: The hue and color saturation Extended the teeth to give it a more fearsome look Blurred the extremities to to simulate their transparency within the water Sharpened the eyes to add a distinct cold stare to them.

27. Furry Cozy Shrimp

28. The Cozy, Furry Shrimp This shows a shrimp surviving in one of the coldest places on earth by living near a thermal vent on the ocean floor. I modified this picture using Photoshop and Microsoft Picture Manager: Inserted the two shrimp into a thermal vent picture Modified the hue and saturation of the background layer separately from the shrimp layers. Blurred and Smudged the thermal exhaust to give it a more puffy, gaseous look (now the shrimp is very cozy)

30. Jelly Glass This picture shows a deep sea glass squid. Using Photoshop I modified the picture by: Changing the hue and saturation of the squid Blurring the body to give a more liquid look Sharpening the eyes and tentacles to make them more pronounced PLEASE SEE the website for this bad boy in action: http://www34.homepage.villanova.edu/john.m.steele/CS C_1040/PE/index.html
