                                              Fall Light
This is my fall light photo, this includes, Rule Of Thirds, Duotone, leading lines and layers.
Rule of thirds: The player and his bunker are off to the side while the shadow of the bunker is layed across the left side of the photo.
Duotone: I took away the saturation, and played with the blacks till I felt that it showed the bunkers shadow the best. Also I burned in the shadow to make it stand out
Leading lines: The length of the shadow and the back hedge draw the eye towards the player and his bunker, also the color in the bunker also helps with adding attraction to the focus point.
Layers: I duplicated the original later and took away the saturation to make its black and white. Then I erassed the saturation around the bunker and player to bring out the original colors.

rule if thirds

The focus area is the player on the right, just a single focus point. I burned his barrel on the paintball gun and dye symbol and lightend him up the draw to eye towards him. Also lighend some of the clouds around the player.

                                                                    TWO FOCUS POINTS
Took this one in the kitchen, one student is getting taught by the teacher while the student on the far left is listening in.

lines & layers

Leading Lines
I brightend up the whites and took some of the red off of my face, also I blurred the background but kept the tree limbs in focus to give it depth.
LandScape
 I burned in the clouds to add an element. I darkend the bottom left and right to exaggerate how much sun is coming through the clearing. Also I lasso'd the fence and the football "thing" to brigthen it up. 
Duotone
 I played around with the colors and contrast, etc... till I liked it, I burned/dodged his shoes and scooter to sharpen them up, blurred the back ground then duotoned with a hint of gray. Also exaggerated the shadow on the pant leg.
