My favorite photo is "Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious" because the background for it is beautiful and detailed and she is centered in the middle of the picture. Framing and background are both visible.
My least favorite photo is "Glazed and Confused" because you can't really see what he's doing and it's sort of vague.
I would have wanted to cover the pottery story because pottery is cool to watch and capturing that would be fun.
I would rate the photography a 9 out of 10 because most of the pictures were gorgeous and had a lot of the rules of composition. The lighting was good, the framing was perfect, the backgrounds were plain and pretty. One thing I didn't like was that some of the pictures weren't creative and anybody could have taken them.

"Step in Time":
The lighting in this picture is perfect for the feeling you're going for, bright, but the background brings the whole picture together. The impact this photos on me is making me think about how hard and long he worked to practice how to get into character and really pull off the character. This is a great picture to add in with this story.What rule of composition do you see in the photo? Background

"Becoming Mary":
The focus on Mary's face and blurriness on the framing of the picture has a great composition. The pitch black background also makes the whole picture focus on Mary. Her expression that was caught is also perfect because it shows how she's feeling to perform and transform into someone else.

"Just a Trim":
The angle and closeness of the pottery to the lens is intense. The pottery is kind of blurry while the hand is clear and detailed. You can see the clay on their hand and it shows how hard they've been working.What rule of composition do you see in the photo? Viewpoint
