Jonathan Knowles is a photographer in the advertising industry. His work focuses on simplistic images that draw attention to the product being advertised. Knowles' photos of a natural beauty campaign and alcoholic beverages feature a close-up of the subject against a blurred backdrop. This emphasizes the focal point and entices consumers to buy the product. Knowles uses techniques like shallow depth of field and the rule of thirds to place the item in the optical center of the image. While effective at highlighting the object, some feel his images lack creativity.
The document discusses the design of a homeless charity campaign. Neutral colors like cream, grey, light blue and light green will be used to reflect the sombre tone of homelessness.

Iona focused her final exhibition on landscapes after being inspired by images on National Geographic and the work of photographer Thomas Hoekper. For practice, she photographed macro and portrait subjects on her school grounds. Her favorite practice shot was of scratched paint, which achieved an abstract effect.

Feedback noted the improvements from editing and suggested considering borders and arrangement for future presentations.

The document discusses the differences between empathy and sympathy in psychotherapy. Empathy involves understanding a client's thoughts and feelings from their perspective without judgment, while sympathy involves feeling compassion for a client but not fully understanding their perspective. The key differences are that empathy aims to express understanding, involves deeply perceiving the client, does not always agree with them, and values the client's experience, while sympathy aims to express compassion through agreement and may not fully apprehend the client's perspective. Maintaining empathy rather than sympathy is important in psychotherapy.

Three sample critiques are provided that analyze photographs based on these standards.
Cropping can be used to emphasize or change the focal point of an image. Cropping tighter on a subject's eyes can make their eyes the clear focal point rather than their whole face.

Cropping out distracting background elements simplifies an image and strengthens the intended focus. The crop also influences the overall style and feeling conveyed by an image.

From Hope to Despair: The Top 10 Reasons Businesses Ditch SEO Tactics
Are you tired of seeing your business's online visibility plummet from hope to despair? When it comes to SEO tactics, many businesses find themselves grappling with challenges that lead them to abandon their strategies altogether. In a digital landscape that's constantly evolving, staying on top of SEO best practices is crucial to maintaining a competitive edge.
In this blog, we delve deep into the top 10 reasons why businesses ditch SEO tactics, uncovering the pain points that may resonate with you:
1. Algorithm Changes: The ever-changing algorithms can leave businesses feeling like they're chasing a moving target. Search engines like Google frequently update their algorithms to improve user experience and provide more relevant search results. However, these updates can significantly impact your website's visibility and ranking if you're not prepared.
2. Lack of Results: Investing time and resources without seeing tangible results can be disheartening. The absence of immediate results often leads businesses to lose faith in their SEO strategies. It's important to remember that SEO is a long-term game that requires patience and consistent effort.
3. Technical Challenges: From site speed issues to complex metadata implementation, technical hurdles can be daunting. Overcoming these challenges is crucial for SEO success, as technical issues can hinder your website's performance and user experience.
4. Keyword Competition: Fierce competition for top keywords can make it hard to rank effectively. Businesses often struggle to find the right balance between targeting high-traffic keywords and finding less competitive, niche keywords that can still drive significant traffic.
5. Lack of Understanding of SEO Basics: Many businesses dive into the complex world of SEO without fully grasping the fundamental principles. This lack of understanding can lead to several issues:
Keyword Awareness: Failing to recognize the importance of keyword research and targeting the right keywords in content.
On-Page Optimization: Ignorance regarding crucial on-page elements such as meta tags, headers, and content structure.
Technical SEO Best Practices: Overlooking essential aspects like site speed, mobile responsiveness, and crawlability.
Backlinks: Not understanding the value of high-quality backlinks from reputable sources.
Analytics: Failing to track and analyze data prevents businesses from optimizing their SEO efforts effectively.
6. Unrealistic Expectations and Timeframe: Entrepreneurs often fall prey to the allure of quick fixes and overnight success. Unrealistic expectations can overshadow the reality of the time and effort needed to see tangible results in the highly competitive digital landscape. SEO is a long-term strategy, and setting realistic goals is crucial for success.

Online Marketing: 7 Rules to Make Your Images Absolutely Rock!
1.
2.
3. Negative Space
There’s something very positive about negative space in an
image. Whether it’s a big clear sky or wide open field, the
empty–or negative–space can simplify your image and
provide a place to make the text and call-to-actions stand out.
4.
5. Rule of Thirds
When composing a picture, having an off-center subject creates
balance and harmony in the image. This may go against the desire
to make a subject the center of attention, but aligning the subject to
the far left, right, top, or bottom of a frame–a third of the way from the
edge–actually draws the eye to it instead of putting it smack in the
middle, forcing the eye there (notice where the focal point–the red
bow-tie–is in the above image). Choose images that follow this rule
of thirds, and you may notice the negative space this could create as
well–a photographic win win!
6.
7. Include People
Everyone loves to be included! Pictures of people make
the image more relatable. Viewers will be more likely to
engage with your digital marketing campaign if there are
people in it because they can identify with the person. It
can be one person on a mountain or a team working
together, but be sure they reflect your target audience’s
demographics so the viewer relates to the picture.
8.
9. Positive Emotion
When using people in your ad, have them show positive
emotion to really boost the likelihood of viewers
engaging. Laughter is contagious and a smile can start
a conversation, so by including these types of emotions
in your images, you can gain the same results.
10.
11. Provide Context
What exactly are you offering? You can use images to
make this very clear in your digital marketing. People
process visuals much faster than text, so by showing
someone enjoying your product or service you can
instantly convey the right message–and a positive
one at that!
12.
13. Complimentary Colors
The image should be visually appealing, and the colors in
the image are key to making this happen. Colors can also
help in creating a mood or deepening an emotion; for
instance, blues are more calming while reds evoke more
passion. Use a color wheel to help choose colors that
naturally go together for a richer aesthetic that could
increase the image value beyond those thousand words.
14.
15. Change it Up
Don’t become a victim of ad fatigue! People get bored after seeing
the same visuals over and over again, so be sure to change them
up to keep viewers interested. By changing colors, context, and
people in your pictures, you will also be A/B testing to see what
works and what doesn’t in your ad campaigns. This can only
improve future ads, and help to draw more people to your business.
