I like this photo because the lighting really focuses on one part of the image, not
enough to over power other things in this photo but just enough to have it stand
out. This picture has the right amount of variety in it for the photo, it isn’t plain
but also isn’t too much.
I like this picture because it really only focuses on the grave. The camera is
centered on the grave and the background makes it pop out even more. I would
have preferred in my picture if there wasn’t a big tree in the background, like the
Ansel Adams picture, a plane sky background would have been a lot better.
This photo is good because of how like the grave picture it is just focuses on the
tree. It stands out from anything else in the photo. I don’t like in my picture how
you can see the houses behind it and you can also see the blue pole.

I like this photo because the image captures the detail of the buildings and what
might be going on around it. I would have like to have got the whole building into
the photo but there were obstructions and it wouldn’t have made the picture
look as nice.
This photo is simple but very effective; you can see the reflection of the bridge in
the water in the winter. I don’t like how in the picture I took, the water or
background isn’t as nice as the picture Joe had taken.
This wide shot of a town doesn’t entirely focus on one thing, the chimney stands
out from everything else because of the height so I focused on that in my photo. I
would have like they’re to be more in the image and the chimney to be on the
right side more, instead of the center of the picture.

I like this photo because it is very simple but it makes a very nice photo, only
focusing on flowers, which stand out in some way. I really like how the sun
shined down onto the flower and you can get a glimpse of the shadow in the
background, but if the fence behind it doesn’t come off as appealing because it is
molding away.
These last two images I like because of how it’s angled to show off how many
different flowers come out of where they have been growing to lean over to the
garden. I would have liked there to be more of an overgrow with the flowers I
chose to photograph but I couldn’t do anything about that. The door, shed and
fence all come onto the background and it would look better if they weren’t.
