Chapter Three

-Before 1990
-The photographer used Shallow Depth of Field. I choose this because the main women in front is the focus. That makes the people in the background have a little blur.
-Another principle is that the women is the main subject. Behind her is just the outdoors which is good because it doesn't distract you. Having the blur in the background makes you focus on the main subject.
-Lastly I chose that the image is in Black and White. I think having this photo in black and white vs . makes it harder to understand what it going on. It becomes more powerful of an image of a women holding her camera during her journey
-I chose this image because I liked how it showed that women have power. Back then women were known to be house wives but this shows a different side of women. I think that it shows women are capable of having jobs that usually men only get.

-The first principle I chose was Use of lines. I chose this one because the tallest person starts on the left and the shortest on the right. This makes us look at the photo from left to right and notice the difference in heights.
-The next principle I chose was Background compliments. I chose this one because the background adds to the photo, it is in the woods or an open space and it shows that back then there were not many to go to have meetings.
-The last principle I chose was Contrast appropriate. I chose this one because there is a lot of contrast going on. The man on top is in black, but the the other men are in black too but you can tell there is some different shades of black. Also the contrast between the two younger kids and the whites almost blending in with the ground.
-I think this photo because you see men coming together to serve their country. It also shows how we all come together as a whole and are willing to fight. I also really liked how this photo was in black and white because  it add more meaning to it.

-The first principle I chose was Keep it Simple, I think this image cluttered. A lot of stuff is going on in the picture like a crow of people and then a huge sign. My focus is all over the place and too much is going on at one time.
-Another principle is the image creates an emotion. The emotion is that everyone in the photo is expressing their option about an issue. It shows that this picture has meaning by people coming together for a common goal.
-Lastly the image uses light is engaging. It brings your attention and makes you think about what actually is going on in the picture. The photo looks like it is some type of conference and people were fighting for something.
-I chose this picture because it was different, it shows emotion. Also it shows that people are coming together and fight for their rights. It shows that people back then came together that people care as a whole.
