Week 4 Exercise: Poem

Week 4's exercise was to choose a poem from the "Verse" section of Bartleby.com and then modify the appearance of a web page to match the context of the poem.

For this exercise, I chose Winter-Time by Robert Louis Stevenson. To match the context of this poem I chose to use a black background and a winter time picture that was taking around dusk. I then decided to try and blend the picture into the black background by modifying the picture in Photoshop to give the edges and corners a much blacker look. This allowed the picture to blend in and not be such an abrupt change from the picture to the background.

Here is my poem webpage: Poem
