Nature. the shadows of the big mountains on the side, reflect on the small mountains in the foreground, and highlighting the mountains that lay behind them. the red mountains form some sort of a margin that portraits the mountains in the background. the light use is amazing.

The photographer captured movement. the model looks as if she is floating. great light exposure.

I believe that the photographer did a great job by placing the model on the side of the picture, rather than in the middle. Her position makes the stairs look like a journey she doesn't want to go through.
The model's body language speaks disappointment and beauty.

I just love this picture. the eyes of this girl just make this picture alive.

a few of the objects in this picture are actually the same size. but the way the photographer set them up, and the angle he chose makes it appear that some are smaller than the other. he also has only 2 or 3 objects in focus and he left all the other objects out of focus which also gives the audience a feeling that the objects aren not really the same size.

This picture is very simple and very straight forward. the photographer actually used the camera to magnify the inside of the cigarette, giving it a completely different and strange look.
i love it because it would take you a few seconds to actually know what is the object that is photographed.

This picture makes you feel that the car closest to the camera is bigger than the other cars, and that is what the photographer would want us to think. And the man in the end looks very small compared to that car, because the car is in the foreground and the man is away from the car's angle and in the extreme background.

In this picture, the photographer captured the movement of the birds flying away. You can tell from the picture that the birds are actually flying away from something, maybe they are scared of something, and I believe that is a great emotion to get just by looking at a picture.

I am just in love with this picture. It is so natural, and has amazing focus on the old people's face.
The photographer used the length of the dinning table and the amount of people sitting at the table to take this picture flawlessly with depth of field. And to top it off, the trees kind of form a margin around the people waiting to have dinner.

This picture is one of my favorites. It contains almost all the elements of a good photographer, from my point of view. The trees kind of form a frame like pattern that highlights the beam of light in the middle of the picture. And the water is so pure that you can actually see the reflection of the trees and light on to it. Most importantly, the picture contains depth of field and an outstanding use of colour.

In this picture, the photographer keeps every detail with in focus. Starting from the background, you can clearly see all the beautiful bulidings. And you can tell by theis picture how calm the water and the weather was. I also admire the use of colours in this photograph, it serves it very well.

I admire this picture because even though the plant is extremely small in reality, yet the photographer managed to emphasize how big it is by putting it in the middle of the man's hand, and keeping it in focus, and kept everything else that surrounds the plant, out of focus.
