I choose this photo for simplicity because its been taking from the bottom to the top which makes the view better its been focuse more on the top where its been hit and it shows the explotion better ,a better quality to see whats happening.

Photo Manipulation and Ethics

In Israel when it was April Fool's Day in the United States it was portrait day for the new cabinet and photographer Menahem kahana . Kahana's image appeared in Yated Neeman. (jewish newspaper) Someone had too fooled with the image. Someone used photoshop  or used a similar program to remove the female minister in the newspaper. They clone over people in a portrait of a terminal offense at a U.S. daily newspaper. The photographs company been using Photoshop to clone people or subjects meaning they been putting people in different places with different backgrounds.

I think this type of editing it's acceptable because it's another way to capture your moments in a different place and different occasions making  it to an big event and also making it in better quality. Making the picture better and more interesting to see. Making it two three time better than the original picture.But sometimes i think its unfair because its like stealing someone identity without permission not being right. Or taking someone rights .Or editing some one different making something that its not real.

I think this is the least unethical ,because They were not a lot of change of the picture I mean there the same persons but they didn't edith them a lot like changing some how of their face or there body they just fix there positions.

40 Greatest Photos Ever

I picked this photo because  i like how its just focused on the mother and her children as she bends down to hug her. I think this photo made the top 40 for the reason that it grabs your attention oh how she's hugging her daughter its expressing the way she feels on her face.

I picked this photo because it touched me.. I think the photographer as he/she took the photo it was trying to tell us that is hard for the army/soldiers that is hard to leave he's children behind as they fight for our country. I think if made the top 40 for the reason that if you just look at the kids face you can feel what he's felling at that moment.

I picked this photo because i like how they just focused on the kid and he's dad. The photo got my attention by the color of it black & white . Something different on the other pictures i choose. The photographer as she/he was taking the picture it was probably wanna tell us that is hard for every soldier to leave there family behind. I like how its set it got my eye ,I think thats why it was made on the top 40.

Post Shoot Reflection

Hes Red,Metal, and Happy pictures were really nice they expressed what they where looking for. It had all things they needed. Something that it could make the pictures better would be focusing more on the object like having more detail, Making it better and more attractive to the things he was looking for.

Warm-Up

This was my favorite photo,I like how inside the eye you can see the view,and how it focus on the object inside the eye,also how they made sure the eyelashes would come out, also  they made sure they the lines of the eye would be captured with the view. This was my favorite photo of all i liked how it was expressed towards the eye and the view.

A photo that I would take in this world, would be something like my favorite picture on top, My picture would be something original, natural, and something that has to do with nature. Like flowers ,landscapes or even people. Something that i could express myself.

Fist Pictures-Best & Worse

Best Photo-I choose this photo the best ,because i like how it focus on her smile and how natural it looks.The light just focus right on her . The color of the picture looks soft and the colors looks amazing and clear. 

Worst Picture -I choose this picture the worst, because i didn't focus on her . It came out a little bit blurry on her hand. I took the picture in a wrong moment. I should've focus on taking the picture more calmly.
