2.
a. The judges liked the use of focus and they also liked composition. The judges liked how they photographer could tell a story and capture emotion in certain photographs.
b. I think the photographer did well with focus and capturing emotion. I think they could really work on not complicating photographs because then the viewer is confused on what the subject is.

3. They go through each contestant and they list/discuss strengths and weaknesses of each person's work. They talk about how well a certain photographer did with a topic and how well they captured each and every picture.

Part 2:

1. Girl in circle pool- I agree with the judges and I like how the photographer captured the subject and the use of shapes throughout the photograph. I also like the lighting, it shows more to the story.

2. Greyhound race image- The judges didn't like the background and how both dogs were cut out of image. I believe the image was very well done and had amazing focus. I think this photograph was very well done to show action.

Sensory Overload

1. Yes, I agree in some respects to the quote because people are labeling places. I think the quote helps me think differently and give me new ideas on photos.

3. I think if I were a child to a person that worked at one of these places, I would be able to look at things all day and always be able to notice something new.

4. My most favorite photo is the one with flowers all in it because it is bright and very pretty to look at. Plus I really like flowers.
