Academic Shoot reflection

1. What challenges did you encounter while trying to get the photos following the rules I set out for you? Taking and finding pictures that follow the rules. It's difficult because of the certain pictures we have to capture follow the rule exactly.


2. What technical aspects of photography or the assignment in general (focus, framing, holding the camera, etc.) did you find yourself thinking about the most? Provide a specific example of what you did to do this correctly. Framing because i was just sourt of confused on how to take  picture representing that rule.


3. If you could do the assignment again, what would you do differently now that you know some basic rules of photography? TAKE EVEN BETTER PICTURES!


4. What things would you do the same? Take pictures of people still.


5. When you go out with your next set of prompts, which rule do you think will be the easiest to achieve? ALL OF THEM!


6. Which rule do you think will be the hardest to capture? NONE OF THEM!


7. What rule are you still not totally clear on and what can you do to figure out what that rule is? Im sure i have all of them figured out.

The Story

Simplicity
 The main reason why i chose this picture for simplicity is because it gave the center of interest. it shows you what's happening.
Rule Of Thirds
I chose this picture because four options for placing the center of interest for good composition.
The three girls and the American flag.
Lines
I chose this picture because it has lines from the buildings in the picture.
Balance
I chose this picture because of the outlining and shape in front of the back round.
Framing
I chose this picture because of the frame the center of interest with objects in the foreground. This can give a picture the feeling of depth it needs to make it more than just another snapshot. 

Avoiding Mergers
I chose this picture because it seemed 3 dimension and it's very hard just to focus on one thing.
Discussion 
 I chose this picture because it's a well-balanced composition. You can bend or even break them and still create fine photographs.
