Photo Shoot Reflection

My simplicity photo was of a close up of the building with a man falling out from the building.  The photo was zoomed in so there really was nothing else visible in the photograph and your focus was drawn straight to the man and what was occurring. With all that was going on this photographer chose to focus in on one simple yet tragic moment. 

The rule of thirds photo is everyone evacuating over the bridge and  facing toward the camera, with all of the smoke behind them. The rule of thirds is shown in how the photographer took the picture with the main group of people in the bottom left third, this created a very powerful effect in showing that everyone was leaving the city on on the right side of the photo the entrance there is almost no traffic and just a few people shown walking. 

My lines photo was a close up of the building with plumes of smoke coming out of several floors.  The building lines are vertical in perfect symmetry and then the smoke comes in horizontal lines looking like someone took the time to drew it in with precision.

My balance photo was World Trade Center buildings in the center of the photo with the plumes of smoke coming through.I feel looking up at the buildings in the center and the people in front of the photo does a very nice job of balancing out the photo. I said it in my picture description but I feel if the woman in the black was not in the center of the people it would not be as balanced out to me, she just adds the right amount of people in the photo and leaves the focus on the buildings and what is going on yet adds a human touch to the horrible event.

My Framing photo took some finding as many did not look framed to me. I picked the photo with the buildings in the center smoking and the smaller buildings around the sides of the WTC. To me, these buildings created a frame making me focus in on the center where all the important action was taking place.

My Avoiding Mergers photo is the one of the Empire State building with the WTC behind it on fire. This is a farther in the distance photo then anything else I chose and to me if the Empire State Building was not shot from the angle it was I do believe the photo would have looked as if either the ESB was on fire itself or both buildings were. Place the WTC off to the right instead of the center allows you to see what is truly going on.,
