Midterm Project: Best Picture Ever!

1. Children's play
2. El Mojon, Costa Rica
3. This photo uses color, background, balance,and rule of thirds. The rule of thirds is the green grass, then the shoes/socks, then the rest of the leg. The background is the space between the two subjects and the greenery in the back, and the color is the red on green and black on green. The color of the Children's legs also gives the entire photo a nice warm feel. It is balanced because there is equal on both sides.

1. Rising Above

2. Volcan Arenal, Costa Rica

3. This photo demonstrates framing, rule of thirds,color, and leading lines. The leading lines are the trees directly in front of the volcano (vertical, which gives the feeling of strength and dignity). The Rule of Thirds is the meadow/trees, the Volcano, and then the sky and clouds. The framing is the clouds framing the volcano around it. The color is the green, blue and white, all cool colors with no warm, giving off a strong/relaxed emotion. 

1. The Hippie Life
2. El Mojon, Costa Rica
3. This photo uses Pattern, Lighting, Color, and Asymmetry. The blue, purple, green, and black colors and very pleasing to the eye (mostly warm with the occasional cool, mostly the blue). The pattern is pretty obvious, with the peace sign interrupting it. The peace sign is also asymmetry, which tells something. The story here is that the peace sign is actually a photobomb, but I loved it XD.
