#1 Rule of thirds Based On subject  #2 Rules of Thirds based on Horizon Line #3 Leading Lines #4 An image with subject matter in the foreground, middle, and background  #9 Image with Great Lighting  #5 Image with close/short depth of field  #6 An Image with a far/long depth of field  #7 An image out of focus / lacks clarity  #8 An image with sharp focus/ strong clarity  #10 An image with poor lighting Questions- #1 My favorite image is the one with the short depth of field because it gives a great background blur #2 The least successful image was the one with bad lighting because it is lit from the back and just looks too dark. 

1. Yes because the flash provided enough light to get the water looking sharp, but at the same time keeping the exposure right. 2. I liked shooting the water with the flash because it was easy to do, and allowed the water to look sharp.  1. No it was not easy to get a good shot. The lighting was awful and without a flash it was almost impossible. Even the best photo looks to be not sharp because the shutter speed had to be low enough to let in enough light.  2. I did not like shooting without a flash because it was impossible to get a good exposure.  1. Yes because the phone would allow for a good exposure and the dropping of the ink was easy to time. 2. Shooting the water with the burst mode allowed us to get the right picture, and the one that looks the best.  1. Yes it was easy to get a good shot because the lighting was good and the water was illuminated nicely. With the ink, it was slow enough to time correctly.  2. We timed the ink...

1. The overall concept was having the subject look as if he was looking at the PE classes on the field. I feel like that we did succeed with the images that we had. 2. All of us were involved with the aspect of creating an idea and filming it. I was in charge of filming it, where Luka was helping get ideas, and Josey was the subject of the cinemagraph 3. We could have had better lighting or possibly framed the image better. 4. I don't think that it could have been much easier. The hardest part was the Photoshop portion and getting it to export as a .gif 5. The team dynamic was great, and we all worked very well together.

Personally I like the slower shutterspeed because I think it looks cooler. This was fairly easy to do because water is easy to find and photograph
