Rule of Thirds
In the pictures I have I cropped to help it use the rule of thirds better. To show how pleasing to the eye they are I took out any wear and tear out by shading the areas around the focal point. To help not to disrespect anyone I took out their shadows and made sure not to catch them in a shot on accident. For any highlighting areas I took a slightly darker color and lightly went over the bright spots.to help not catch any license i blurred it out and or covered it up and also blended it to the back ground.
Macro
IN the photos I clEARed the blemishes to make the flowers look younger.
Portraits
For the portraits I took out anything that I thought that would pull away attention from the models in the pictures. Then I scaled down the picture for more saving room.then I went to look for anything else that would pull attention and found nothing.
