Academic Photo Shoot

1. The composition rules that I used were balance and simplicity. The girl's face on the left side of the photo is balanced out by her arms and the cup with the egg. This is also simplicity because her and her experiment are the only things in focus. There is also unity, with the color blue being the predominate color in the photo. 

2. The subject of the picture is the girl with the Dutch braids writing on the cup, which is on the counter.

3. I think that the subject is clear in this photo, and would be to people looking at it too.

4. I do think that I could've focused in a little more on the girl and get more of the background to blur out.

1. The composition rules that I used was lines. The guy's arm creates a line across the photo to the water squirter, which is what he is doing that makes the photo an academic photo

2. The subject of the picture is the guy with the water squirter 

3. I think that the subject of the picture could be more defined. The subject would be clear to a viewer, but because of the people in the background the focus starts to shift away from the guy with the water squirter.  

4. I could've moved to the right, as to get the guy in the bright red shirt out of the photo. I think the guy with the red shirt definitely starts to take over the subject of the photo.

1. I used the rule of thirds, where the girl writing is on the right side of the photo. Her face is in on the first third marker. Her hand with the pencil is also on one of the third markers.

2. The subject is the girl on the left who is writing and looking at her Chromebook.
3. In this photo, the subject is a little iffy. It is definitely at least the girl, but there's more going on, and I got some mergers in the photo. I think that the subject is clear, but because of the busy lines, it wouldn't be descernable at first. There is a merger on the right, with the next person's elbow and in the top of the photo with the next girl's leg.
4. I could've moved more to the left to get the second girl's leg out of the photo. I didn't fully realize that she had moved her leg, so I wish that I had noticed and taken another photo, or try to blur it out.
