Lines
                               1) I think I could of took a better picture with lines but this one isn't that bad.
                               2)The subject is books in lines.
                               3) i don think the subject would be noticed first i would look at the girl first .
                               4)i could of took a better picture with lines and the subject would be noticed first.


                                                                            Simplicity
                                 1) on this one i think i could of done better with a closer picture.
                                 2) The subject would be the girl because she's alone and no distractions
                                 3) I think the subject should be noticed first because there is nothing distracting
                                 4) i think this is a okay picture just shoulda been a little closer.

                                                                      Rule of thirds
                                   1) This picture is good because it follows the rule pretty good.
                                   2) The subject is the boy doing his work.
                                   3) The subject is really noticeable aging because there is nothing distracting.
                                   4) i could of took picture with a better position.

                                                                         Balance
   
                                   1) This picture is balance because each girl on each side balance it.
                                   2) the subject is the two girls that are on each side of the table.
                                   3) The subject is kinda noticeable but it could not because the background has a       lot of activity.
                                   4)i could of took a picture with just the two girls.

Avoiding merges 

                                           
                                    1)This picture is avoiding merges because the girls are is cut off and there is part of a head.
                                    2) the subject is the girl doing her work.
                                    3)the subject is clear because it is pretty noticeable.
                                    4)i could of took a better cut off picture.

                                                                      "The story'
This picture tells the best story because they are all hold hands and bowing there heads for a reason because in the picture they are doing so.
                                                               
                                                        "Action and Emotion" 

                                 

In this picture the action is they are giving out food to these homeless people and the emotion is that they are giving them food because they don't have money to eat.

"Filling the frame"



This picture is interesting because the photo looks so cool and I don't know what they are doing but it looks dope and bright and crazy.


Part Two

1.  I chose this photo because it was the picture that caught my eye with the pink paint bouncing off a bass speaker. it just looks cool and how its focused on the paint and not the girl in the background.

2. Avoiding mergers is the rule that it is following because it is not focused on the girl in the back that would distract you and its focused on the paint.

Part Three

1. I could take photos like these in a science class that are doing an experiment.
2. I like to go to ms mat as class.
3. focus and take pictures of the cool ones

Composition 9/11

Lines
In the photo the lines from the building are eye catching because you can see that the man if falling down from the building. 

Avoiding mergers
                        In this photo the people are avoiding the fact that all the pictures of the faces are people who lost their lives in 9/11 and when you look at this picture most likely your going to look at the people standing and not the faces.


Balance
In this photo it looks all the same how both sides the lines and smoke match each other and the people out the windows.
                                                                    Simplicity
                                                 In this photo the woman is mostly all you look at because she's covered in ash and the background is cloudy so you don't really have a distraction.



                                                          Rule of third
                                              In this picture the photo is not in the center its on the top right and you can see more not he bottom.
               

                                                              Framing
                              In this picture the background is all tore up and shows its serious and the fire fighter got hurt.

Touching people


1. What do you think about this project and photo essay?
I personally think that this project was very cool with looking at photos with touching people. The photos taken in this project show many different moods and emotions some more awkward and some like the two individuals knew each other forever. 

2. What would you do if someone approached you with a camera and asked you to participate in a photo shoot and then asked you to touch a stranger?
I would  help someone out and take the picture but asking me to touch another person I wouldn't know how to react unless it was some beautiful girl then maybe. 

3. Think of an unusual photo shoot similar to this one that you think would be fun to go and shoot.
An unusual photo shoot would be to ask different and random people to take a picture of kissing a some one and not just on the lips but on the hand or something where ever. 

4. Finally, tell me what you thought of the photography, are the photos good? Do you like looking at them?
I think the photography was great, they just seem like pictures of two individuals. If I hadn't known the project and didnt know these people were complete strangers being asked to touch each other I wouldn't have thought it was a special picture. The the fact that they were strangers and asked to touch each other makes the pictures more interesting and fun to see the different reactions.
