My favorite picture from the Lens slideshow is the last one with the deer and the bird on the deer's back. This is my favorite one because I like animals. The silhouette of the animals also add an interesting effect to the picture, and I like the effect. Also, in the caption of the photo, it says that the picture was taking in Richmond Park, London. I've always wanted to go to London and to a place where I can see wild animals.
2. Which photo is the best from the slideshow? Provide three reasons.
The best photo from the slideshow is the second one with the Syrian Kurdish family. This photo is the best because the picture captured an intense moment of the situation. Not only is it candid, it also captures the emotions of the people in the picture. Like the saying "A picture is worth a thousands words," this picture can almost write an article about how the people are feeling and the kind of situation they are in. Each person focused to the camera (the mom and the two kinds) have a different emotion. Lastly, it even includes Mr. Farley's rule of composition: get closer. The subjects of the picture are close up and easy to distinguish.
My best work this semester is the shallow depth of field assignment. This is my best work because it includes all of my rules of composition. Also, I think the lighting in this picture is good; there are shadows in appropriate places and lights in appropriate places. The shallow depth of field also creates a nice effect to the picture. If I had more time, I would use my third rule of composition (fill the frame) even more. There seems to be too much empty space on the bottom left side of the picture.
4. You chose three rules of composition. What are your three rules?
My three rules of composition are:
1) avoid the middle
2) rule of thirds
3) fill the frame
5. Select one of your own photos that illustrates your ability to apply at least two of the three rules. Insert the photo into the post and label the picture. Clearly include the two rules of composition that you are using.

This picture includes the rule of thirds and avoiding the middle.
6. I have three rules of composition. I have explained one already. What is my first rule?
Your first rule of composition is to get closer to the subject.
