Photos of 2014

Part One:

This is one of my favorite pictures because it is showing one of the best rappers and entertainers in this picture. The quality is very sharp from everywhere and is focusing on Jay-Z and Beyonce. The photo of composition that was applied to this picture was a little bit of balance and rule of thirds.

This is one of my favorite pictures because it is showing a different point of view and is leading lines. I ask like it because there is no empty space and it just feels really full and it looks like I would want to be here. The road is very blurry but it balances out when you are focusing on the motorcycle and the trees.

This picture is very legit because it looks like the Grand Canyon and it is really cool and it looks like the perspective is very vivid. This one also has leading lines and shows a lot of rule of thirds in many different places. This photo was sharp and was taken at an excellent angle and is really eye appealing.

Part Two:

This is my favorite song because it is talking about the thing that runs the world and it is everything that i would need. Money and the way they talk about it brought it to my attention. And it was the best part of 2014 because that is when i got a job and started to get money.

This is my favorite movie because i like the story behind it, an that is, you can start from the bottom and get to the top. The funniness and techniques they used to make this movie possible brought it to my attention. It was the best part because it was funny and serious at the same time.

This is on of the most spoke about news cast because it was another death of another African-American and it is more amazing for me because i was there the day after he died and got to see all of those people protest. It was very tragic and was very important for people to hear about and put a stop to black on white crimes.

Ray Rice is a running back for the Baltimore Ravens in the NFL and he hit his girlfriend Janay and later on got married. It was one of the most talked about sports news because he is a big time running back. It wasn't the best of 2014 because it isn't the best to hit your girlfriend.

Part Three:

1. The thing that happened to me that was very memorable was me getting money for my car and I was very thankful for that.

2. My goals for 2015 is to get my car, get good grades and have a stress free high school year.

3. In 2015, I am looking for a great year with kindness and cheer.

Photo Composition Description

1. The man that got killed by a subway was pushed my a random person and the photographer rushed and pulled out his camera just to take that picture.

2. The photographer said that he took the picture to worn the subway driver to stop with the flash on his camera.

3. Honestly, I don't think he should've because you just took a photo over saving someones life.

4. No, he didn't do the best thing he could have done in that situation because I would rather save someones life then to take a picture of someone dying.

5. I really don't believe they should of put that picture of someone about to die on the head of the New York Times, this i just foul and cruel.

6. The most important thing is to prevent people from getting hurt and to stop bad things from happening.

7. I think it is ethically acceptable because it is your right to do whatever fells right and the photographer should be getting into the things they are recording/documenting.

8. No, they shouldn't avoid them because they are now a part of something that is involved with their job/duties.

9. What stands out to me the most is the sides that those photographers were taking by saying he isn't the only one that could've helped.
