Peer Review - Prompt shoot

http://catherinesphotojournalismblog.blogspot.com/2015/01/prompt-shoot.html?showComment=1421183167640#c5936083005159417338

I really like the book picture, I think it represents the theme perfectly.
my least favorite is yummy because it doesn't focus as much in the subject and its less captivating. I think one of the things you do the best is taking pictures related to the theme, all 4 pictures made perfect sense especially pause and the end. The one thing I think you could improve is using different angles and rules. I think that the picture that did the worst job is the yummy because the photo could be more interesting and different.

most important person:

favorite photos of 2014

 I like how in this photo everyone is looking, recording and taking pictures of the dead giraffe.
there is something interesting in the way the photographer takes a picture of the reaction of the people  and lets us know what is going on by letting us see a part of the giraffe.
this is a very good portrait. its a simple photo, you can not really see the background but you can really feel the mood, every little thing and detail is captivating and beautiful.

there is something really special about this picture. it captures the mood perfectly. One of the strongest points of this photo is the way the eye view is done. from the bottom and letting us see the whole sky.
