 Self Assessment:

5/5Composition: I really like how it's just half of her face and not her whole face.

5/5 Technical Aspects: I love the way her eye pops and that it draws you in and I really like the lighting. I like how you can see her freckles adn that her hair is dark but it still shines.

4/5 On Topic: I think that this picture is on topic but I dont like that her face is grey and you lose the whole black and white component.

5/5 Overall Effort: I actuall really like this picture and the way that it turned out. Something that I would change is maybe do both of her eyes and not the rest of her face, just her eyes.

Self Assessment:
4/5 Composition: I like that the vase is in the front and the lights in the back, and I like how the glass helps light the bottom and the the blue comes out/

4/5 Technical Aspects: I think that the bottom of this picture is too bright and the top is too dark but I like how the top is blue and at the bottom the lights shhine through.

5/5 On Topic: The topic was glass and I think that I showed that it was glass pretty well, I think that maybe if I had gotten closer that it would have been a better picture or from a different angle.

5/5 Overall Effort: I do like how this picture turned out and the way that it looks I just think that some minor things got in the way from being a great picture.

Self Assessment:
5/5Composition: I really like this picture in general I like the contrast between the boy and girl and how you can see some of her nail polish. I like her ring and his watch, also I like how it looks like she is pulling away from him and it kind of tells a story.

4/5Technical Aspect: I wish the lighting was a better so that their hands wouldn't look over exposed, also that they weren't wearing black jackets so you could see their arms.

5/5On Topic: The topic was contrast, I think that there hands are contrasting the blackness of the rest of the picture and that it's a boy and a girl.

5/5Overall Effort: I really planned this picture out and like the result of it but I think that the lighting could be better.

Self Assessment:
4/5Composition:  I enjoy that I was contrasting her socks to her shoes but the yellow curb in the background really helped show the contrast.

5/5Technical Aspects: The lighting in the picture is a little gloomy but I think that it helps the colors to pop!

5/5On Topic: The topic of the week was color and contrast and I think that it is, her socks to her pants and shoes and the yellow curb to the sidewalk.

4/5Overall Effort: I gave myself a 4 because the curb is crooked compared to the rest of the picture and it bothers me and I don't like it.

Self Assessment:
4/5Composition: I like how you can see one shoe more than the other, I like how there is a little shadow also.

4/5Technical Aspects: I really like the lighting for this picture and how it turned out. I don't like the wrinkle in the logo on the shoe.

5/5On Topic: The objective for the week was narrow depth and I think that it is narrow depth, you get the texture on the shoe and the other is blurred out nicely.

4/5Overall Effort: I gave myself a 4 because if I really looked at the picture after I took it I would have seen the wrinkle but I didn't take that much time.

Self Assessment:
5/5Composition: I really like the grass in front and the building in the background. I love that you can see the dew on the grass and the sun flare.

5/5Technical Aspects: I think that the lighting in this picture is really great and it makes it more interesting. I think the lighting makes the grass look cool.

5/5On Topic: This picture is on topic it was narrow depth and I like that its the front row of grass that is in focus. I like that building is out of focus and that the sun kind of blinds out half the building.

5/5Overall Effort: I gave myself a 5 because I took a ton of picture just to get the right one. Also I got super dirty so I thought I deserved a 5. (:

Self Assessment:
4/5Composition: I like that the head of the elephant is in narrow depth and that the elephant is the only thing in the picture and i really like the shadow.

3/5Technical Aspects: The lighting in this picture is way too bright I do think that I captured the design of the elephant.

5/5On Topic: This picture is on topic for this week, the objective is pattern and texture, the elephant has a great pattern and you can tell that it has a smooth texture.

5/5Overall Effort: I gave myself a five because I really thought about this picture and brought in a object. I really like this picture I just think that its too bright.
