4-Step Critique
Instructions: Visit Steve McCurry’s Photo Galleries: https://www.stevemccurry.com/galleries
Click on a gallery theme that seems interesting to you. *I recommend starting with the Afghanistan Gallery before you look through others. *After you click on one gallery, you can select the grid icon near to view all the images in the gallery at once (instead of viewing in slideshow mode).
Select ONE PHOTO that you find beautiful or interesting. Click on the image to enlarge it, right click to “Save Image As” and save as a JPEG file in your OneDrive.
Place the photo on your blog and answer the following questions about it:
- What do we see in the photo?
- What camera angle do you think was used?
- Do you see any of the 8 rules of composition we have learned about? Which ones and how are they used? If not, how was the image composed?
- What do you think is happening in the photo? How does it make you feel or what does it make you think/wonder about?
- What makes this photo beautiful or interesting to you?
Publish you blog and attach the link into the SAME Teams assignment as the questions from the video.
