Action Photo shoot

Daniel is running towards me as the main subject from the the top of the field. He was about to attack me until i fell back at his charge.

Lauren is running across the field to Daniel as he he waits on the other side. This is her boyfriend that she has not seen in over a year.

This is the panning shot of Daniel running as fast as he can across the field. He is running to go beat up the guy that tried talking to Lauren.

In this blurry picture both subjects are completely blurred and Daniel is about to hit Lauren with a ball. He is mad at her for talking to the boy back.

Yearbook Layout- Charlie boy!

Creating depth

The rule used in this photo is depth because you can see the horses and the grass on the ground to the hills and mountains, all the way to the high sky with clouds.

Saudi Arabians take matters into their own hands

A Saudi Arabian man along with his army go on a strike yesterday afternoon at the town square and try to set towns on fire with home-made bombs. They are upset with the U.S soldiers taking over their towns.

Japanese Earthquake!!

Shows how tough it was for everyone to go through this tragedy just as this woman can't help but cry. The photographer took this picture in simplicity as the subject that is in important here is the woman crying. He blurred the background a little so we could fully emphasize of the woman's emotions.

This shows how much everything was buried into the ground and how disastrous the tsunami was. The photographer shot this with the composition of viewpoint from the ground so it emphasizes the mess and the soldiers in the background.

This is a good photograph that captured how the water took over the city. It's shot in depth so that you're able to see everything being hit. From the mountains in the background to the water hitting the streets. It's crazy to see how exactly the water striking started to hit the city.

Newspaper Layout

Front Pages of the World

My favorite newspaper front page of the world is "The Examiner" of Washington D.C because it's got a lot of stories and information even though it may look to crowded up together, that's how I would enjoy reading a newspaper. My favorite headline is "Looking to kill" because it interests me on a possible murder story in which stories like those appeal to almost everyone. There is only one full story. All newspaper front pages have in common that they all have headlines or have small paragraphs of all the stories within the newspaper. Things that very are the amount of headlines and stories there are and how many pictures there are.

The editors in chief are Crysany Smith and Sara Tall. The advisor is Kelcie Butcher. My favorite spread was the cheerleader spread because I liked how the pictures were put on there and how there was chants written out at the bottom of the spread. I liked how the yearbook theme was expressed throughout the whole book but if I had to change it I would have added a more appealing theme. Yes I would like to go to that school because they seem very school spirited and it seems like they have a lot of activities to choose from.
