Composition 9/11

SIMPLICITY

             I chose this picture because with the sky as the background,
             it really captures the scene of the World Trade Center smoking

                   from the plane that struck it.

THE RULE OF THIRDS

I chose this picture because it shows the memorial
with the names of the victoms carved and makes it
look like it goes on which gives it a path to follow in the
image.

LINES

I chose this picture because the lines of the american flag
which are parallel with the others gives the picture a good mood
of americans showing their respect torwards their country.

BALANCE 

I chose this picture because with the fisheye lense, it
gives the image a balanced feeling while showing the whole
memorial and it's surroundings.

FRAMING

I chose this picture for framing because with the buildings

of downtown Manhattan, New York it makes the image

centered and adds depth to the image.

AVOIDING MERGERS

I chose this image for avoiding mergers because

the flag behind the speaker makes it kind of steal attention from

the main subject... which would be the speaker. Also, the

flag appears to be coming out from behind the speaker.
