After a nationwide rebellion, a local Asian citizen is engulfed in flames by a small, homemade bomb in June 2013. The bomb was said to have been created by another citizen with intentions of harming a military leader. 




Part 3


This photo is a great representation of repetition which is the constant repeating of an object in a photo. The photographer captured repetition in this photo by the bikes being in the air. This photo also shows the correct way of filling the frame. Filling the frame is focusing almost every inch of the photo on the subject. The photographer shows this by leaving no background space and having the subject be the star of the show. 


In this photo, the Rule of Thirds is presented very well. The rule of thirds is as if the photo was split into 9 separate pieces. The subject of the photo should intersect at one of the lines. The subject should be off center, either to the right or to the left. The photographer captures this by shooting the woman to the right of the photo where the background, in this situation the forest, is surrounding her. 



In this photo leading lines, repetition, and the rule of thirds is present. Leading line are lines that occur almost naturally to capture the viewers eye and attention. The photographer does this by the way the ground looks and the angle the photo is shot at. Repetition is the constant repeating of an object in a photo. In this case, the object is the rain which is constantly falling from the sky. The rule of thirds is captured when the subject of the photo isn't exactly in the center. In this photo the subject of the photo is off to the left drawing your eye to the left. 



In this photo, the rule of leading lines is present. Leading lines are lines that occur in the photo drawing your eyes to the lines. In this case, the lines are the balance beam, and her legs and arms. Her leap is obviously the subject of the photo. The height of her legs and the lines that her arms create draw your attention to them the most.

Quick Write: Chia Pet

If I were to invent a chia pet it would be my mom because i think it'd be pretty funny. I don't think it'd sell all that much cause my mom isn't that famous. I'd have a laugh though.

3 Pillars of Exposure







1. We often relate aperture to the eyes
2. The larger the aperture, the higher the more light. The smaller aperture, the less light.
3. A large aperture will make the subject and the background sharp. A small aperture will make the subjects sharp and the background blurry.
