magazine cover peer review

http://carolynnesphotojblog.blogspot.com/2016/01/magazine-covers.html

1. The name of the magazine was Austere and it was made by Carolynne Andres
2. Two things I liked about this cover was the color of the texts and the picture she used.
3. One thing they could approve on is where the text is and how big it is.
4. I picked this cover because of the color of the picture and the text color goes with the picture, along with how theres a lot of space in the cover for more text.
5. There is a bar code and I think it was a little too small for the magazine cover, she also could've put it on the other side so it wouldn't kind of distract the picture form her face.
6. I would not look at this magazine cover, simply because of the headlines and what the magazine might be about. I'm not interested into stuff like that.
7. I can tell that this is a self portrait.

prompt shoot peer review

http://ianphotoj.blogspot.com/2016/01/photo-shoot-three.html

1. My favorite photo is the first one, the 8 because I like how the background is blurry so you're just focused on one locker.
2. My least favorite image is The End one, although it is very creative, I think that it could've been taken at a different angle.
3. I really like the creativity of the pictures and his they were cropped well and edited well too.
4. The area that he can work on is the angle of the photo.
5. I think the best prompt he did was connected because he took a picture of all the flags and how we are all connected as one no matter where we are from, and how the flags are literally connected. That picture could be taken with a deeper meaning.
6. I think the prompt that he didn't do so well on was the end, simply because of the angle.

2015

This is one of my favorite photos of 2015 because this was when Gays could marry in any state in America. I like it so much because love is love and everyone is getting more equal rights and America is becoming more free. 

This is one of my favorite photos because it was taken at the beginning of 2015 and it's part of outer space.  I also like it so much because all of the colors go together and it is such a beautiful picture and it reminds me that there's so much to explore out in space and so many colors and stars and wonderful things. 

This is one of my favorite photos because it's a picture of the super moon. The super moon was very rare and I'm glad I got to see it and I really love space pictures, even if it's just of the moon. This was also a mark in history because it won't be until a while to see the next super moon. 

The best song in 2015 was drag me down by One Direction. This song was the best to me because One Direction is such a popular and talented band. That also was their first song they released after Zayn left the band so it showed that they're still going on without him. Things that attracted me to put this as the best song is that the song is very catchy and the fact that One Direction made their comeback song after Zayn left.

The best movie in 2015 was Star Wars The Force Awakens. This movie was the best because after years and years since the last Star Wars movie came out, they finally made a new one. This was also the best because their were a lot of blood related characters and you got to see all the old characters from the first Star Wars movie in here. I picked this one as the best because it's Star Wars, why wouldn't you? Also because it was such an exciting movie and you got a lot of reactions out of this movie.

The most important news story in 2015 was Gay rights all over America. This is important because Gay marriage has been legalized in all states and that means more equality for everybody in the U.S. Things that made this the most important news story is the fact that America is becoming more free and now people who are Gay and in love are allowed to get married wherever they want in the U.S.

The most important person in 2015 was Caitlyn Jenner because she was a transgender. She was the father of Kylie and Kendall Jenner but now she is the mother. She is important because she followed her dreams and set an example of all of the other kids that are transgender to just be themselves. All the things that lead her to be the most important is her courage and her strength to change herself in a society like this. She has a very powerful story.

The biggest entertainment story in 2015 is when Zayn left One Direction. This is the biggest story because a lot of people thought it was the end of One Direction and a lot of fangirls, like myself, started crying and completely lost it. This is also the biggest because he has caused a lot of drama since he left and started his solo career and the fact that the biggest boy band in this decade just lost a member of their band. Instead of 5, there are now 4 members that still make it to the top.

One thing that happened during my holiday that I'll remember is New Years Eve my best friend and I babysat 60 kids. I'll remember it because they were all over the place and they tried jumping out a window and we had to pull them back and block them. My New Years resolution is to keep my abs. Last year my resolution was the get abs, which I did, but I didn't keep them. So this year I'm going to get my abs back again and I'm going to keep them and I'm going to go back to a healthy diet. This year I'm looking forward to less drama with One Direction because they're on break so I can maybe get a life in that time period. I'm also looking forward to the new Pixar movies coming out because I've been waiting a very long time for those movies.
