Spherical Panos

These are two of my spectacular finished Spherical Panos that I created. I tried to challenge myself by taking pictures with my partner, Lani Alo. We took the pictures and uploaded them to my camera and I cut the picture of me in Photoshop. 

After that I edited all the pictures except the picture of me in Adobe Bridge. I first loaded the images in Photoshop and made a panorama; for extra credit I screen shotted the panorama. I clicked on the image size tool which is underneath image on the tool bar.

Then I went to the tool called polar coordinates and the sky turned inwards and in my opinion looked like a portal that leads to another dimension. I placed the cut out picture of me on top of the finished edited spherical panos.

Final Photomontages

These are two of my finished photomontages from 3rd Period G.T class at KMS. All the students in GT were inspired by David Hockney.To develop this interesting image students had to work with digital cameras and take pictures from bottom to top ( 15 pictures ). Then we had to edit the photos and rename them in Adobe Bridge to make them more intriguing. 

After, we connected the photos because they were separated and made them match together by increasing the sizes and just playing around to make the most interesting image.  I then published them to the period 3 server. I celebrated my finishing work by doing my happy dance when no one was looking.

All About Me


Hi my name is Talia Washington. I am 11 years old and I am currently in 6th grade. I believe that I am BOLD, BEAUTIFUL, and an AWESOME person. I am living my life right now because I have an amazing family that I love and care about.

I am incredibly talented at soccer and practice a lot in Anahola. I practice almost everyday except Wednesdays because that's my day off , but I also have hula on that day so I have a pretty busy schedule. I am so prepared for life that I have my plan set out already. I first want to graduate from USC (University of Southern California). Next, I will raise a family with my loving husband who is going to be a professional football player. Then, I will have 3 children and be very happy with them.

I really like school because it gives me the chance to be educated and I can learn a variety of new things and they will be stuck in my brain. I think it prepares me for life because all the l=things we are currently learning just helps us get really use to all the grown up talk and the skills in life. My favorite subject so far is Math. I like math because there is basically math in every job in the world.

I am living on the BEST place on earth, Kauai, the beautiful island is amazing.I am very grateful that I get to live on this beautiful island because of all the different species of animals. We have very beautiful, amazing, majestic animals like the Hawaii's state bird, the nene goose.

I have 2 dogs one is named Koa and the other is named Hope. Koa is 6 years old and Hope is currently 7 months old. Koa is the kind of dog that just sits around the yard just laying on his chubby belly sleeping. While on the other hand hope is running as fast as she can and jumping everywhere just being her little energetic self.

Magazine Cover


This is my finished magazine cover that I created during the break of fall in 6th grade at the school of KMS (Kapaa Middle School). I used a digital camera to take this awesome picture I also used photoshop to add all these cool layer effects.

First, I took a picture with my partner in crime Lani Alo we took a lot of great pictures with the digital camera Mr. Sanderl assigned to us. I chose this awesome picture because I think it really shows who I am. It a couple of minutes to decide which photo of me I was going to use for this project, I think I chose the right one.

Then, I took the image I was going to use in Photoshop and I had to make all these different layers. One was called the contour, the contour was the outline of me and that got me the finished outline of my magazine cover.
