Composition 9/11

Examples of good photos shot on 9/11:

Simplicity:

This photo really shocked me. This is because I never really looked at images of how people were affected after 9/11, I only saw the images of the towers being hit or on fire. So, it amazed me to see what a surviver looked like after this emotional day. 

This photo really shows all the emotion going on during 9/11. Even if someone wasn't hurt personally, all the destruction and death of other people really affected Americans. The person in the picture is crying and is definitely grateful to still be alive. 

Rule of Thirds:

This photo shows the heroes of America during 9/11. It made me feel the pride of America and why we should never forget 9/11. It was a terrible event, but it brought out the heroes and the best in people. 

Lines:

I'm not quite sure which building this is, but every time I look at a picture of the destruction from 9/11, it makes me feel amazed. I'm not amazed in a good way, but amazed in the way that I can't believe someone would do this and be capable of doing this to America and to everyone living in America. 

I feel shocked when I look at this photo. That is because I can't believe what's really happening. They had to chose between being burnt in the fire, or jumping out of the building. Also, I'm aware that journalists are there to observe, but it still amazes me that someone can stand by and take a photo instead of trying to help save someone's life. 

Balance:

This is the lobby of the World Financial Center after the Twin Towers collapsed. This photo just makes me feel sad, looking at all the destruction that happened during the day, even though this picture doesn't capture the worst of it.  

Framing:

This picture is of a firefighter climbing through the windows of the World Financial Center. It makes me feel proud and thankful for all of the people that risked their lives to help save and rescue people during 9/11. 

Avoiding Merges:

This photo is of the south tower being struck and it makes me feel sad about all the deaths and destruction that went on during 9/11.
