My second article I read is composition. I got confused in the beginning because I didn't know what the rule of thirds are. I kept on reading and I started to understand what he/she was talking about. The first step was really easy to understand. I got it right off the bat.

Number two I got confused on. One because it said the picture was balanced but it didn't look like it. but I got the balanced color part. number three I got it because it was kind of like the first article that we read. number four was really easy to wrap my mind around because the lines did give depth. I can imagine it and see it in other pictures. Number five I got because you just need to ask yourself what your doing and what could make it better.

the first article was beginning photography. I thought that it really did make a difference if you were standing really close and really far away. The trick he taught him to tilt the camera a little bit down was really cool. I think it is really fun to see the differences when you make one thing in focus in one picture and the whole picture in focus on the other.

I thought it was really cool how he could tell someone that much in so little time. I thought the way he showed the guy with the examples was really helpful (at least to me it was). I like how he explained what he was doing wrong and what he could do to make it better. I thought it was nice of him to help the guy. I thought the tips that he gave were important for anybody.
