Frame, Lines, Focus, Angles, Rule of Thirds= PHOTOWALK!

Last week in my photojournalism class we went on a "photowalk" around our school. I took many pictures of classrooms, nature, benches, and more. I tried to look for the techniques we learned in class. The techniques we learned were focus, frames, rule of thirds, lines, and angles. I chose my top ten and then I chose my favorite three.
Leading lines- real or implied lines that lead the viewer's eye through the photo
Framing- using a secondary element highlight or emphasize the subject
Focus- subject of photo is in focus but distracting or non essential elements aren't
Rule of Thirds- you focus the important part of your picture on the sides, or down or up
Angle- not making your picture at eye level
I like this picture because of the natural light from the sun on the stairs. It shows leading lines of the stairs  and the railing of the stairs. I also like the tree right behind the stairs.
This is my favorite pictur out of all the pictures I took on the photwalk. This picture shows framing over all the other techniques. There are two frames, one outlines the two girls looking at something and the other frame outlines a girl walking. This picture also represents line of the windows and benches. 

I like this picture because of the focus my camera made on it. The techniques shown in this picture are focus, frame and leading line. The picture is focusing more on the tree and you can still tell that didn't take away the focus from the bench. The ovals from the bench outline the tree, and the leading lines of the brick wall.
