Architecture shoot preview assignment

Surrounding
 This picture is of Moody Gardens in Galveston, Tx. It shows how the surroundings of the green plants and tropical trees add to the environment of the building.
Patterns
 This picture shows the repetition of the outside of this building
Light
 It shows how the natural light interacts with the inside of the house, but is also manipulated by the different colors of the circles.
Detail
 This picture doesn't give you the full view of the building, but you kind of get a feel for the building just by seeing this.
Angle
It's just a picture of 4 beams intersecting, but it's really cool because it's so simple, and just something you can see everyday but nobody really notices how interesting it looks

Caption Warm Up

Ian Loyd chases his 8 month old goat show Calvin around the round pen at the Ag Barn after a Wednesday workday. Ian placed 3rd with Calvin at the Travis County Youth Show last January and received $600 at the County Auction.

Rules of Composition:
Rule of thirds: If you draw a tic tac toe box Ian and Calvin are in the middle section of it.
Focus: Even though it is an action photo, there is no blur at all, which is really good.
Mergers: Ian's foot is coming out of Calvin's butt, and the wheelbarrow is coming out of his back
