These are my favorites because my classmate, Joshua, seem to be having fun with the object and it just made the picture seem fun. The umbrella was a nice touch to the picture because he had fun playing with it. The area was great for background because it was sunny and that made it easier to work with the umbrella.


5.

This is one of my best photo's because the guys in the photo stand out the most from the background. Their shirts have a type of vibrancy on them. Plus I like the lighting because it makes the guys more viewable.

My Best

This is one of my best photo's to me because the vibrance colors pop out and makes the photo eye catching.

This is another of my best photo's because the guys in the photo stand out the most from the background.

This is also one of my best photo's because the books show variety.

Composition Rules and Guidelines


http://www.photographymad.com/pages/view/10-top-photography-composition-rules

I like the texture of this photo because it has the composition of Symmetry and Pattern. It gives the viewer of how the statue is man-made, as well of the surroundings. Plus the statue, and the words on the wall, is very eye-catching composition.
