Semester Final Exam Part 2 and 3

Part 2:
 This photo is showing a man who got shot twice through a car window and was also killed.


The photo is showing the president just calmly talking ,but the governor is yelling and probably being rude.
This photo is very interesting because it looks like the bonfire got out of control and the man was trying to hurry up and through it with his horse.


Part 3:
The rule of thirds in this photo is the Olympics people are running and one of them are almost about to cross the finish line. The photographer achieved this rule because that one person who is about to cross the finish line caught my attention. Also the one that is about to cross the finish line looks like he has the longest legs.

The rule of thirds in this photo is the young lady walking through this tunnel. The photographer achieved this rule because if u slip the picture up with lines and try to focus then your focus would just be on the young girl. The photo was taken very diligently.

The rule of thirds in this photo is Obama looks like he is capturing the sun. The photographer achieved this rule because it caught my attention and because it focuses closely on how what he is saying might be really intense. This photo is so beautiful.

The rule of thirds in this photo is the dog is running threw the crowd. If you put lines on the photo you would just block everything out and you would just focus on the dig. The photographer achieved
 this rule because out everything in this photo you could barley tell the dog is running the crowd,you would have to focus to actually see it.
