I like this photograph because it shows that even though there is a protest going on, a boy decides to hand out water and help the police men. I like it because he is possibly risking his life to help others.

I like this photograph because of the horrible event that occurred in paris, people go to show their support and condolences. This photograph is very touching and shows the support and love people can show towards others.

I like this photograph because it shows how a part of the world is struggling and how it gives us a new view on how we see things.

Best song

I think the song "Take me to church" by Hozier was the best song of 2015 because Hozier is one of my most favorite artists. I also like it because it is just a very good song and tells a story. It tells about not fitting in and how he/they had consequences.

Best Movie

I personally think "Inside Out" was the best movie of 2015. I think the story was very touching and showed the emotions of a human heart. I think it also showed the lengths people will go for someone they care for, which is very heart warming.

Most Important News Story

I believe the most important news story of the year was "Charlie Hebdo Attack in Paris" because it was so devastating and so sad that the news got out almost immediately. I think this news story was very sad but the amount of support received from people who had seen or heard of this event was so touching. People came in herds with flowers, candles, and condolences to this tragic event.

Most Important Person

I believe the "Black Lives Matter activists" because they fought for something they believed. I also think they are most important because they could have created a new image on how people see the inequality problem. I think they are most important because they can help create a movement towards inequality.

My Holiday

This holiday I got a new camera and I was very happy to start taking better and new photographs with it and I now can use it for Photojournalism and for at home memories.

Some resolutions I have for 2016 are to become fitter and healthier, to get all As, and to be a kinder, happier person.

I am looking forward to opportunities and making new friends and hopefully travelog to new places.

Magazine Cover Peer Review

http://bellasphotojournalismblog.blogspot.com

1. "cursive club"by Bella Lufschanowski

2. I like the lighting and I like the dramatic effect the lighting creates for the subject. I also like the use of colors.

3. I think the magazine cover is very good but I would have darkened it just a little more to create a more dramatic look for the subject.

4. I thought this magazine cover was very eye-catching because the subject is pretty and also because the effect the lighting has makes the magazine more eye-catching.

5. Yes, there is a barcode and it is in the right place but is a little small.

6. Yes, because like I said the cover is very eye-catching and has interesting headlines.

7. The magazine cover I chose was a portrait, I can tell just because I know who Bella is.

Prompt shoot peer review

1. My most favorite picture by the blogger was "Pose" because it showed emotion and was nicely edited. I also like it because it is a pretty picture of the subject.

2. My least favorite picture was "The End" because it was at a weird angle and I think should of been taken at a lower level.

3. I think their pictures all had very nice lighting and also should a lot of creative. I also like them because it kind of tells about the photographer and what they thought of what to take for a certain category.

4. I think they could work on angles because it would compliment the subject much more.

5. I think personally they did best on "Pose", they captured the subject while also complimenting the subject and the black and white created more emotion towards the picture overall.

6. I think they could have done better on "Pause", the photograph taken was good but could of shown more action.
