Composition 9/11

                                         
                                                                        Framing 
I thought this photo represented framing, because the destroyed building makes a frame around the main subject, the fireman. This made the photo look more 3D and gave it depth. 






Rule of Thirds 
I picked this photo for rule of thirds because the firemen is off center of the photo, a little to the right. This really makes the fireman stand out, and it also allows the background to stand out more. This adds more visual interest to the whole image. 




Lines
I chose this photo for lines because the whole photo is following a vertical pattern. The building is vertical and the lines shown on it are vertical too. Also the man falling down is going in a vertical line. This really gives the photo composition and creates a dynamic effect. 









Balance 
This image shows balance by, the twin towers are in balance with each other. The buildings are in equal weight, creating symmetry. Also the smoke is evenly coming off of both buildings. This makes the photo very alined all around. 













Simplicity 
This chose this photo because it shows great simplicity. The whole photo follows the gray color scheme. The woman is covered is debris, as well as the rest of the building in the background. The center of interest is focused on the woman due to the uncomplicated scenery. This allows the photo to be very simple. 










Avoiding Mergers
This picture shows merging lines by, all the people walking are covered in gray debris. Your eye isn't drawn to one thing because the whole image is the same color. Also the people in the image are all walking in a straight line and this means that the people who are in the back don't stand out because they blend in with everyone.

Academic Shoot

Image
The composition rule I followed for this photo is balance. The subject's are the two groups of people. They are both the subjects because the groups are very crucial to this image since they are the focus of the photo. The two groups are balancing each other out. People who are looking at this photo may not realize that this image has more than one subject. However, the photo is focused on the two groups, so if people know the rules for balance in a photo then they will know that the groups are both the subjects. I think I could have gotten a different angle in order to make one group stand out more than the other. To really show what the subject was I should have gotten down on there level and focused in on one of the groups with the other more in the back.  This photo shows rule of thirds. The subject is off centered, which allows the photo to be more visually appealing. The subject of this photo is the boy who is following the rule of thirds. I think it i...

Landscape Photography

1. Where is one place on the internet you might go to better prepare yourself for the location you are shooting at?  Online map service, such as Google Maps. Google Maps show great detail of locations. 2. What is one app you might download to help you when trying to pick the best angle to take landscape photos?   The app Photographer's Ephemeris that will help you predict the angles of sunrise and sunset. Includes features that will tell you the best angles and when to shot your landscape photos. 3. What is the biggest problem shooting with a zoom or telephoto lens? You want to shoot details from a distance to make the foreground and background to appear to be very close together.
