Today we will work on our Triptych project. For this assignment, we will see just how symmetrical we are.

1. Locate your portraits. 
• Process portrait in Lightroom. (color, exposure, crop.)
• They can be square or rectangles.
2. Make mirrored portraits in Photoshop, via the tutorial.
• You should have a left mirrored portrait and a right mirrored portrait. 
3. Place the left, the original, and the right portrait onto a single canvas in Photoshop. (in that order)
1.  Make sure to have an even border all around your images. 
• Save as a PSD, a TIFF, and a JPEG.
• (I saved it as a TIF in the tutorial. Save a flat version to upload as a jpg.)
• File name 
4. Upload to your blog no later than before midnight on Monday 3/3. 

NOTE: If you were not in class today, please follow along with the tutorial and post to your blog.
