I like the rule symmetry and patterns because it explains how i can catch someones eyes to parts of the pictures you wouldn't really notice.
"Getting your Images Straight-Watch your Lines"

I like the rule getting your images straight because it explains how i can make my images not look crooked so they can be just the right composition.
"10 rules of photo composition  (and why they work)"

I like the rule simply the scene because it explains how i can focus on subjects instead of making the photo look messy and clustered.
"Simply Beautiful Photos: Composition"

I like the rule, rule of thirds because it explains how i can make my images look balanced between the strongest elements and open area.
"Top 10 Composition Tips"

I like the rule blur the background because it explains how i can make my images look isolated from the background scenery that isn't so important.

First Portrait Assignment.

Being new to the whole photographer business, i felt as if i did a good job in following Henri Cartier-Bresson's advice. I feel as if the subject felt more herself with me, not acknowledging the camera. You can tell because she was laughing and smiling as if we were having a friendly conversation, but through the lens of the camera. 

My First Photo Outing-Principles of Design.

Principles of Design: Emphasis.
On my groups first outing, this, of many that I personally shot, was my overall favorite picture. Its representation of emphasis is clear. The way the leaves from the plant surround this blue pop-tart bag really make the blue stand out-making it easy to be seen. So beautiful, the way you see that naturally-made green from the leaves in the background with a man-made blue wrapper in the middle.

Principles of Design: Emphasis.
The green cover stands out from the brown benches that it is laid upon and surrounded by.
