This angle that is focused on the wheel of the tank makes the man seem to be smaller. In real life however, it is around the same size as the tank. Also, the leading lines of the wheels make the tank appear to continue on for much longer than they really do. 

The horse appears to be quite large. It is the same size as the tree, which must mean it's either a big horse, or it was taken from an angle meant to make it seem this way. 

In real life both of the figures are around the same size. However, this picture makes it seem as though the person is much larger. Since I took the picture from the above the man's head, it made it seem like he was looking way down upon the dinosaur. 

This picture was taken from close behind the soldier's head, and with the leaves quite a ways in the background. This allowed the space in between the subjects to act as a minimizer and make the leaves appear smaller. 

The soldier seems as if he could be a part of the scene and almost as though his size would fit in. This happened because I set the figure on a ledge which made him seem taller. I cropped it so that now, it looks like he is kneeling on the ground. 

I took this picture from below which helps to make it seem like the soldier is much smaller than the man. Since his head isn't in the picture, it leaves the observer with the opportunity to decide how it would look and how far it would extend upwards. 

Portraits

 I chose this picture because I think that Sadie's face isn't trying to hard. She was relaxed, and it was right after she laughed, meaning that it was just a neutral picture.

Cortland's left eye is in the rule of third, which is why I chose this. 

I chose this because there is emotion in his eyes without him making a face. Also, because it follows the rule of thirds. 

Benji has a real smile, and it wasn't because I asked him to smile. I chose it because he is natural.

I chose this because it's so simple. He also has a look of calmness, and this picture more than most caught my attention. 

Kyle in this picture looks uncomfortable. This is a natural feeling, which is why I thought it was good. If he was acting like he felt comfortable it wouldn't be as real. 

I chose this picture because I think her hair is a good outline of her face. Also, she was looking straight into the camera, so the viewer can see her eyes and the emotion they hold. 

I chose this because it is realistic and her smile is genuine.  

Light Painting

This is an attempt at writing my name with a flashlight. I chose this because although this isn't exactly legible, and you can't even tell its a word, I think it's cool. 

This is a smiley face. I learned from this picture that you can't have marks that don't connect, and all of your lines will be connected in light paintings. 

I think this is a cool picture because instead of the lines of light changing color, the light around the lines change color. This makes it seem like the ball is growing and giving off a green glow. 

While I was painting this, I was moving around from high to low and all back and forward, and I thought it would be crazy and chaotic, but the picture itself came out as pretty even. Also, it looks almost in black and white. 

I thought these lines were cool because it looks like it goes around a ball and continues wrapped around.
