Period 4- Semester Final

Part 1: 

1. Picture 6 is my favorite photo from this slideshow. 
  •  It follows one of my Rules of composition, simplicity.
  •  The background of this picture blends in with the car
  •  The picture itself shows much more than just a car driving in a dessert. 
2.  I believe that picture 7 is the best picture because
  •  The lighting in this photo is beyond amazing
  •   The focus point on this picture blends in well with the other colorful bubbles in the background. (Balancing elements)
  • The contrast in the image also fits in well with only being able to see the dark shadows of the person. 
3. I believe that my best work this semester was my Masters of photography project. Out of all the other projects we had in this class, I had the most interest and work dedications towards this project. i followed all of my Rules of composition, took photos related to the photos my Photographer took, and also followed his editing skills to my photo as well and that is why i believe that this is my best work this semester. If i had more time, I would travel out to take more scenery pictures to improve this project.
