Academic Post Shoot Reflection


1. What composition rule did you follow the rule?

I followed the rules of thirds because if you draw the two lines going down and then two across you'll see that they meet at the subject. I also think there are some lines happening (even though they aren't obvious) but the way the people are sitting creates a soft line (also leading to my subject). 

2. What is the subject (be very very specific)?

My subject is the girl with brown hair on the left side of the photograph. If we are being very, very specific then the subject are her hands, because that is where the "action" is happening. 


3. Is it clear to people looking at your photos what the subject is?


Yes it is clear who the subject is because she is the most in focus and at an intresting angle. 

4. If you can't very clearly see what the subject is, what could you have done differently?


You can see the subject clearly. 



1. What composition rule did you follow the rule?

The compisition rule I followed in this photograph is balance because the two boys in the front of the photograph are balancing each other out, and then the boy in the back is balanced with the people in the background. 

2. What is the subject (be very very specific)?

The subject of the photograph is the boy in the front kneeling over the boy laying on the ground. 

3. Is it clear to people looking at your photos what the subject is?


I don't think it is completly clear who the subject is in this photo, and different people may see it different ways.

4. If you can't very clearly see what the subject is, what could you have done differently? 

To make the subject more clear I could've blurred the background and really focused on the two boys in the front. I also could've shot at a differnt angle or positioned him in a more noticable way.




1. What composition rule did you follow the rule?

The compiition rule that I followed was lines because if you look towards the bottom of the picture there is a line and then the people standing are forming a line. 

2. What is the subject (be very very specific)?


The subject is the teacher (the man in the black). 

3. Is it clear to people looking at your photos what the subject is?


I think it is clear who my subject is because he is separated from the rest of the crowd, but I could've done a better of job of making it even more obvious. 

4. If you can't very clearly see what the subject is, what could you have done differently? 

I could have positioned him better (I think using the rule of thirds could really improve this). Maybe even incorporate simplicity not having shot so many people in one photograph so he could stand out more.

  1. I like the lighting and color in your first photo. I also like the action in your second photograph. I think one improvement would be focus more on the subject, maybe crop the photograph more to show the subject. (btw your answers for the questions aren't showing up)

  2. I like how your subjects are all intrigued with their work. My favorite photo is the one with the girls painting. I like how you shot at a lower angle to get down to their level/perspective. On the last photo, the subject was unclear to me because there were other distracting colors that took away from your subject.
