Composition Shoot

1. Simplicity

        1. I think I followed the rules correctly, and payed attention to the criteria.
        2. The subject of this picture is the fire alarm.
        3. It is pretty obvious the subject is the fire alarm.

2. Rule of Thirds

        1. I think the rules were followed almost perfectly, because Andrew is near the third of the screen.

        2. The subject is Andrew

        3. It is quite clear what the subject is.

3. Lines

        1. I think I followed the rules averagely, with some mistakes, but still acceptable.
        2. The subject is still Andrew
        3. The subject is pretty obviously noticed.

4. Balance

        1. I think the rules were followed fairly well here.

        2. The subject is the entire hallway.

        3. It may be difficult at first glance to understand the subject, but a second look would reveal it.

5. Framing

       

        1. I think the rules were followed fairly well in this photograph.
        2. The subject is Evelyn.
        3. The subject is quite obvious, because she is the only thing in the picture.

6. Merger

        1. I think the rules were followed well in this picture.
        2. The subject is the person walking away from the camera.
        3. The subject is obvious as the rest of the picture is bland.

Reflection

1. Some challenges I ran into would be finding ideas for the photos, opportunities being just too fleeting, and trying to make each picture closer to perfect.

2. For me, I was thinking about the focus constantly, because I had a hard time with shaking the camera, blurring the photo. I kept it in mind and I got better at staying still.
