  1. What does the header image convey about your website, and how does this relate to meeting the information needs of your target audience? In the first photo, I chose a boutique of roses  with multiple color mixture. This depicts the In Living Color nature of my blog that encourages my audience to pick and try on a clothing haul that inspires newness and out of the box designing. (2) The image I chose displays the vibrant boldness of creating a fashion statement. I chose a group of black women to represent my website/content’s audience.
  2. Where did you find your source images? How do you know that you are allowed to reuse them? I found my both images from the website https://unsplash.com/photos/pXmbsF70ulM  and https://unsplash.com/photos/JpCOGj0uIlI by creator Denise Chan and Clarke Sanders. I am allowed to use these free photos because the website and creators do not require permission underneath the Unsplash site license.
  3. Briefly address the production process. How did you make use of image editing techniques described in Manovich’s article to create a multi-layer image? I did not go into detail with the Manovich’s article’s approach to a multilayered image except the 3d effect of real life pictures of body image and roses. My header image focus is vibrant coloring. I am confident that I will add a different image that captures a more specific style language to my website. 
  4. Compare your production process to that of a single-layer bitmap image of the sort that Davison describes. How is it similar or different? My images differs from Davidson’s because of its 3-D real-life photo.
