Discussion

So from what I see is a real good photo the use of the lines and its arranged so its focus is on the officer in the buggie.

 

Framing

  I chose this because its a good frame picture. about how it captures the ruins of the building then the pleasant scene of the American flag standing.

Balance

So this one is about balance and  i thin it shows a very even amount of the city. and the bottom of the statue makes for a good base in the photo.

Lines

  So then lines in this photo makes a good dynamic leading the viewers eyes to the man falling.

Rule of Thirds

I chose this picture for the good element of thirds using the two buildings then the middle of the street makes for a good division of the photo.

Simplicity

        So i chose this picture for simplicity is because of the light element with no one around and such.

Rich Lam - I chose this cause I'm a very hopeless romantic kinda guy and this shows that even through all that crap they are still saying we don't give a care we got each other.

 

The Decatur Daily - I look at this and think of my dog and i can relate to the feeling in this picture.

   

Goran Tomasevic - I like the amazing focus  and clarity of this picture capturing every detail that shows someone in the military.

Happy, Metal, Red

 This picture I just bounced off some ones idea but I made it a little better my opinion and i just happen to catch it at the right angle.

 I saw a big red truck i played with the settings a little to get the exposure just right.

I saw some metal and got the right focus and angle right for the picture.
