Front Pages of The World
1.) My favorite newspaper front page was the Lubbock Avalanche Journal. It looks really modern but informative. Plus it's colorful & it catches your attention.
2.) My favorite headline is the obvious one which is "Shattered". It uses Human Interest b/c it makes you wonder what they're talking about which causes you too read it.
3.)There are three stories on the cover w/ lots of subtitles telling you what you can find inside.
4.)All the newspapers have a big picture covering the top story & about two or three other minor stories around it it.
5.)Some look boring some look interesting. They have different kinds of styles making the audience have different perspectives on whether they want too read it or not. I guess it just depends on the person.

Choice Sheets
I would like too be in newspaper b/c journalism really interests me. My dream job would to be a concert critic for the Austin Chronicle. That explains that I like going to events, taking photos at the event & giving description of the event. I know that it's every six weeks, but I work really well under pressure, strangely. But I really want too be in newspaper & I hope I'll be able too be in it next year.

I found this newspaper as one of my most favorite spreads.

http://www.lightstalking.com/34-photographs-of-cathedral-and-church-interiors-that-rock
1.) The website was basically the inside of churches. Most of the time, the photographer might break the rule "Converging Verticals". But in most cases it's okay b'c it's simply just for the pleasure of enjoying the photo itself.
c.) This photo was taken by HTO3 on Flickr ...
a.) I chose this photo b/c it really pretty & it's just something that anyone I'm sure would stop for at least a second & look at.
b.) Hmm.. I can see viewpoint, lines & patterns & that's about it.c.) This photo was taken by HTO3 on Flickr ...
http://blog.tomolesnevich.com/personal-projects/#nyc-by-bike
1.) There wasn't much said but the obvious subject of the project was the camera was set on the back of a bike & while the person riding the bike rode around on it, shots are taken. I think it was like, a REALLY rad experiment : ) .
a.) I chose this picture b/c it just stood out to me. It's bright.
b.) I see viewpoint.
c.) This photo was taken by: Tom Olesnevich

http://www.flickr.com/photos/kevinday/sets/775271/
1.) The author of the article didn't have a lot to say about the article, but it was titled "My friend, the dead tree." This tree has fascinated this certain photographer ever since he became intrested in photography.
So... this is like the biggest I could get the picture w/o it having like really blurry stuff.
5.) a.) I picked this photo b/c it's hard too see but the picture is black white obviously, but there is the reflection of the tree in the water. The picture may look a bit dark or sad but it's a really good shot.
b.) I see balance for sure, but maybe the clouds on top are can be framing.
c.) This photo was called Missed & it was taken by: Kevin Day
http://www.lightstalking.com/lens-flare
1.) This website was about the use of lens flare. Flare is light scattered within the background of the subject. It was usually avoided but now photographers don't mind as much b/c it adds some creativity to there photos.
4.)
4.)
5.) a.) I posted this photo as my favorite one b/c the lens flare is really rad. I like how the subject is barely seen & how theres a dark side & a bright side.
b.)The rules of photography that i see in this photo are obviously simplicity, rule of thirds & maybe background.
c.) The photo was untitled but it was taken by Erin Purcell
