In the portrait the model is positioned right and the lighting is good so it goes with her complexion. The masthead is in not that much visible for the viewer to see and there is a few cover lines that are around the magazine. Model credit is also in there saying she is hollywoods favorite drama queen. I really like how she posed and how clearly everything is also i like how the words are positions and not completely covering the model. I love how the models also has a long dress and its blowing it show of her facial future and emotion on her face.

YEAR IN RIVIEW


Part 1


                                    the photograph shows how strong firefighters try to stop a fire that spread through out forest and they want to help stop it, its their job. Rules are rule of thirds and balance and also the colors give the picture a different view and bring out what the picture i meaning.


                        The photography has a very colorful vibe and it shows how people think of creative ideas. this picture shows lines and viewpoint . The nets are their to help and its a very colorful way to build a net to with help us get natures nutrition.
              It shows how she is focused and in the game of the activity or sport she is involved with and it show different colors which could represent what she stands for. the rules that show are lines and balance. it gives a great view of what she love to do and what is part of her life.





                                 Part 2




                       I chose this song and artist because I love his music and I'm a fan of what he does with his music and i listen to his songs a lot because they have an awesome beat and the lyrics that go with it are pretty cool. its one of the best because the song just inspires and makes you feel good about life and its just upbeat and you can sing with it.




                                   I found this movie hilarious and it just constantly made me laugh and thats why i picked it. I is a movie where you can enjoy yourself and have a good time and always laugh. It had a lot of comedy scenes and it was honestly one of the best movies.


          I picked paula Deen because she discriminated against black people and made people feel uncomfortable and its not right to be racist and everyone was shocked to find out what she thinks and is like because she honestly looks like a sweet lady but she discriminated and harassed one of her employes and thats not morally right.



       I chose her because she expresses herself freely and dose not care what people think and she is who she wants to be and she's and interesting person because she went through a lot just to be where she is today and I personally love her and her music she is a wonderful and expressive person and that make her amazing.
