Academic Shoot

Lines:

     1) The composition rule that I followed was leading lines by having the student's arms,  and the lines/shape of the sink leading to the water.                  
      2) The subject is the water because the arms are leading to the water spraying out of the sink.
3) The subject in this photo is somewhat clear if you know about leading lines.              
4) To see the subject more closely, I could've focused on the water more than I did.          

Balance:

1) The composition rule that I tried to follow was balance, however if I had centered the object or gone at a different angle, it could've represented balance more than I did.
2) The subject is the scientific model made of the connecting blocks.                                          
3) It is clear to people what my subject is.                                                                                      
4) You can see the subject clearly because I focused on the model and not the background.          

Simplicity:

1) The composition rule that I followed was simplicity because the only thing in the picture is part of the microscope and the background is simple and blurred out.
2) The subject is the objective lens.                                                                                          
   3) It is clear to people what my subject is.                                                                                  
4) You can clearly see what the subject is because the photo is focused on the subject and the background is controlled. 

Avoiding Mergers:

  1) The composition rule that I tried to follow was avoiding mergers, however I didn't really avoid mergers because there weren't any mergers to avoid. If there had been a merger, for example a pole, then if I angled the photo correctly without the pole sticking out of his head, I would've avoided mergers.
    2) The subject is the boy with the brown hair and the black shirt.                                                
      3) It is clear to people what my subject is.                                                                                      
 4)  You can clearly see what my subject is because I focused on the subject and the subject also followed the rule of thirds, and that's where your eyes naturally go.                                                         

Rule of Thirds:

1) The composition rule that I followed was rule of thirds because the girl with the blond hair is in the    upper left hand corner.                                                                 
 2) The subject is the girl in the green striped shirt with blond hair.                                                        
3) It is clear to people what my subject is.                                                                                         
4) You can clearly tell what my subject is because she is in the upper left hand corner, following rule of thirds, which is where the eye naturally falls. 

Framing:

1) The composition that I tried to follow was framing because the girls arms and the toothpicks are framing the container with egg in it.
2) The subject is the container with the egg in it.                                                                          
3) It is clear to people what my subject is.                                                                                    
4) You can clearly tell what my subject is because the arms and toothpicks are clearly framing it.
