Describe the photos you took:What is the distance in the shot? (How close or far away are you from your subject?)What was your point of view when you took the photos? (from above, below, straight on...)Are your photographs horizontal or vertical?Did you consider the rule of thirds to compose your shots? In which photos? Describe.Which one of of your photos is a dynamic composition that successfully leads the viewer’s eye through the work?
The photo I took was taken under the Braga Bridge. I was somewhat far away from the bridge because it is a big bridge. The point of view was from the bottom of the bridge because i was under it. The photo is vertical. The rule of thirds was considered while taking the photo and the subject of my photo wasn't in the middle but on the top row. This photo of the Braga Bridge successfully leads the viewer's eye through the work.

Pattern & Texture

What is the distance in the shot?
For the picture of the tree bark, the distance is very up close for the purpose of seeing the extra detail the tree provides as well as a focus on a certain part of the tree where the background is faint and blurry.
Does this photo follow the rule of thirds? Why or why not?
For the photo of the ceramic vase next to a little tree, It does follow the rule of thirds because nothing is centered. The vase in the picture is to the left while it is the main focus and the tree in the background is too the right. Both of the items take up either all the right side or all of the left side when considering the rule of thirds.
Is this photo an example of pattern, texture, and/or rhythm?
For the photo of the rusty sewer, I believe that it is an example of texture. Just by looking at this photo I feel that you can feel the amounts of rust that was built up on it and it is noticeable how some parts are more rusty then some other parts.
Which image is the best example of a properly exposed photo?
I feel as if the picture of the cement pole is the best example of a properly exposed photo because there are many examples of black and white areas. The grass in the background is darker but also half of the pole is as well. The rough part of the pole has white and black values depending on the positioning that the camera was at. There is a really white area on the cement but it fits the photo well because there needs to be white values.
Which image may be underexposed?
The photo of the sewer has few areas that are underexposed. Even though the very dark values fit the photo well, the areas between the sewers metal parts are very dark but for the reason that is it underground with no natural light.
