Magazine Cover Peer Review

1. Twilight Howl and Aurora
2.  I liked the dog and I likes the text and how it was sort of married to type.
3. Choose a bolder of text color so it is more visible
4. The dog, angle of which the picture was taken, and text style
5. There is a bar code, but I think it should be smaller because it's kind of distracting.
6. I would pick this up to look at it because I love dogs, and shot at a cool upward angle.
7. I'm pretty sure this is a portrait, but no one could be 100% sure.

Prompt shoot peer review

http://ianphotoj.blogspot.com/2016/01/photo-shoot-three.html

1. I like the first photo the best because of the focus on the subject and the black and white eerie effect it creates.

2. The connected photo was my least favorite because it didn't display as many rules of photography as the others.

3. I can tell they really thought about what they wanted to shoot as well as creating beautiful composition.

4. One thing to improve on is experimenting with angles.

5. The "eight" one

6. The "pause" one just because its composition isn't as strong as the others.

1. During Winter Break of 2015 I visited my family in Switzerland. While in Europe I also took trips to France, Germany, and Italy. I had a blast immersing myself in european culture and food. I saw so many beautiful sights such as cathedrals, historic buildings, and snowy mountains. I went skiing for the first time in the swiss alps! It was very difficult at first, but then I got the hang of it. Taking trains everywhere instead of driving was weird at first but it became normal to me and I really enjoyed it! The food there was so delicious and different, but I really miss it. I love traveling internationally because it is such a huge culture shock, but I adapt quickly and I am so passionate about traveling.

2. New Years Resolutions for 2016:

In 2016 I am going to worry more about pleasing myself rather than others, because I tend to neglect my own needs and put others before me which is not good for my self esteem. I am also going to set more time aside to be alone and think about my life and what I want to do with it, I'm going to college soon and I need to figure out what I'd like to pursue. I also want to eat healthier so I start feeling better about myself. I also want to have more fun and not care about what others think about me, I just want to live my life freely, doing what I love.

3. I'm looking forward to going to college in 2016. I'm excited to take part in the self discovery and numerous opportunities that happen during college.
