Photographs

I liked this photo because I liked how they
focused on the wheat and made the sunset
a blur. Also I like it because I love pictures
of sunsets. And the last reason is because
of the colors of and around the sun.
1. In this picture I see a wheat field on the
horizon and a sun setting.
2. I think this photo would be taken in the
summer time.
3. I think this photo was taken somewhere
where there is a lot of farm land probably in
the west of the states.
 I think the photographer emphasized
certain elements because it made the
picture stand out more. The one piece of
wheat that is closest to the camera is in
focus. There is only one part that is
focused.

3. …
I really like this picture because of how it
makes the horse look like a silhouette. I also
love the colors in the sunset. My last reason
is because of how the clouds look.
1. In this picture I see a horses silhouette with
a beautiful sunset in the background.
2. I think this photo was taken in the evening
when the sun has already gone down and
there is only a little bit of light left.
3. I think this photo was taken in a field with
mountains in the distance.
 I think the photographer took this picture
at this moment so you couldn’t see the
features of the horse . Before this picture
was taken you could see all the features of
the horse and the colors of the mountains.
After the picture was taken I think that
everything is too dark to shoot.

I like this picture because I think pictures
taken with fog are very pretty. Also the
crow in the picture really adds to the foggy
background. My favorite thing about the
fog is that it makes the background look
blurry.
1. In this picture I see trees and a crow sitting
on one of the branches with fog.
2. I think this photo was taken in late fall early
in the morning.
3. I think this photo was taken in a forest or
some were with a river around.
 I think the photographer took this picture
from this angle because it focuses on the
bird. I think if he/she took it from another
angle they could have added more of the
tree that the bird is on or maybe there is
something else that could have been in the
view like a river or something.
