The photo of the freight train on the train tracks was taken in Taunton when I was having my senior pictures taken. I chose to take pictures of things that were around me where I was at the time simply because in my head I could see exactly how I wanted the pictures to come out. The distance of this shot is about seven feet from the train, slightly zoomed in, and looking down the tracks. Instead of trying to get to an angle to take the shot, I took it head on since I was standing on the track. The photograph is horizontal and the rule of thirds doesn’t really apply here. The most dynamic photo here is the picture of the train because you follow the train across the picture and to the convergent point.

In this set of photographs, I'm going to focus on the first photograph of the Buddah head. I was only a few inches away from the sculpture when I photographed it in my backyard. My point of view was slightly above and to the side of it. My photograph is a vertical picture and it does follow the rule of thirds. The facial features are in one specific section of the image while the top portion of the head takes up about two-thirds of the frame. It is an example of pattern and texture because of the balls on the top of it's head. They are repetitive and also give a distinct texture to the sculpture.
The most overexposed picture is the image of the lockers because the left half of the image has a lot of white and brighter light, making it seem unbalanced. The most underexposed image in this photo set is the image of the rocks. There are too many really dark spots in it and it makes the picture as a whole look too dark. The image with the proper exposure was the last image of the windows because it has all of the different values of light and dark and they all balance each other out properly.
