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.

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

                                                   TWO FOCUS PONTS AND A STORY

This photo's story is that she is about to kick the ball thru the field goal to get a point.

                                         TWO FOCUS POINTS WITH DYNAMIC LINES

The ball is sitting on the line that is headed towards the field goal to make the dynamic line.

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.
