  1. The giraffe one really works for me. I am touched by its facial expression!

  2. I find the giraffe one the most interesting because his/her face is cropped off by the frame. I think the motion image is the least interesting and is a good example of why the rule of thirds works well. (or how not using the rule of thirds doesn't work so well.)

  3. I like the very close up of a giraffe picture. Some parts of the face is out of the frame and I feel it makes dynamic interesting composition. The part I really like is the focus point which only focused on the nose of the giraffe and other face parts are a little blur. It creates depth of field in same subject and make the photo dynamic and gigantic impression. I mean you got Cannon 50D (I think?), so you better take good pics:)

  5. Sam, Your giraffe picture is really cute and works well with the assignment of focus and framing. I am really attracted to your last photo because of the use of composition and the lighting. The overall effect is really nice and triggers an emotional response, for me, more than the other photos. Good job!
