Extra Credit

1. The man that was killed in the subway in New York, by being shoved into the tracks of the train. The photographer was able to take this photo because he just toked out his camera and staring shooting pictures at that very moment.

2. The photographer said he took the photo because his photos were incidental.

3. I think the photographer should had taken the photo because people need to see that there are actually people that get ran over by trains.

4. I think the photographer did his best in this situation because he captured some images before the train hit the man.

5. I agree that the photo should had been the front page of the New York Post because people would want to read what and why happened to the person that was killed by a train in the New York subway.

6. I think for a photojournalism is more important capturing an image of life as it happens instead of saving someones life because their photo can make it front page of a newspaper and get paid really well.

7. I don't think is very ethically acceptable to involve himself/herself in a situation that he or she photographs because the newspapers workers might not want to take the photo and put in the newspaper.

8. I think photojournalist should avoid influencing events as they happen because people would read about and would want to do it just to come out on front page of a newspaper.

9. Majority of the responser said that they should save lives first and then take pictures in second.

Magazine Essential Parts

Part 1: Masthead
Part 2: Date Line
Part 3: Main Image
Part 4: Model Credit
Part 5: Cover Lines
Part 6: Main Cover Line
Part 7: Left Third
Part 8: Bar Code
Part 9: Selling Line

All these nine parts belong the main cover of a magazine. The masthead is the tittle of the magazine and  is usually typed in big letter so it can be recognizable. Date line is the month and year they publish the magazine. Main image, when is usually one image the image takes up the whole magazine cover. Model credit, is the names of the photographer and the model of the cover. Cover lines are used in all over the magazine, but they do a mistake by sometime putting the letters over the image and the colors kind of blend in and you can't really read it. Main cover line takes almost  a quarter of the magazine with different colors advertising different things. Left third is where they show the vital sales. Bar code standard bar code used by retailers. Selling line is the main thing of the whole cover.

Year in Review Part 1: Best Photos of 2013

This photo is one of my favorite pictures because technology it's advancing, the ultrasounds are HD 4D. The photo is sharp and brightened it shows the babies face really sharp. The center piece of this photo would be the baby that's inside of their moms belly.

This photo is one of my favorites because people are celebrating the ending of 2013 and the beginning of 2014. This photo is using the rule of avoiding mergers because it's cutting off half the body of the three people in the back.  The photo is blurry because the balloons come out sort of blurry and the light in the middle of the photo is really bright and the rest of the photo is kind of dark.
This photo is one of my favorites because the president and his wife are both smiling and waving at the people around them. The emotion of both of them look like their happy and smiling. This photo is sharp in the front and blurry on the back.
