1. Avoid mergers 2. The subject of my photo is the two boys in the back writing and the boy scratching his head. the merger is the blonde boy in the bottom of the photo. 3.I think it is fairly clear that the 3 boys are the main subject with the blond boy as the merger. 4. If people couldn't easily tell I could have gotten closer to the boys and maybe have made my subject smaller and done 2 boys instead of 3. (and a half) 1. Rule of thirds 2.The subject of my photo is the girl reading her book 3. It is pretty clear whom my subject is since she is what the photo mainly focuses on. 4.

Spiral Staircases  http://petapixel.com/2014/12/19/disorienting-beauty-spiral-staircases-old-abandoned-buildings/ On this website, I looked at many different photos of strange spiral staircases from around the world. Many were from abandoned buildings especially from Germany. I learned that there is beauty in every day things such as staircases if shot at the right angle. In order for this to happen, the photographer must find the pattern, and position their camera in order to capture the pattern.  a) I chose this photo because I love the lines and the pattern that directs you down the photo.
