(PHOTOGRAPHY) PLEASE HELP
The website Wikimedia Commons allows people to share their photography with the world. For
this lab, you will use Wikimedia Commons to find some of the principles of photography you
have been learning applied in the world of photography, Photographers with varying levels of
skill can post there, so some images will look very professional, while amateurs will clearly have
taken others. Find five examples of photographs that meet at least five of the techniques listed
below. You might find more than one of the techniques in the same photograph, which is fine,
but you need to discuss five photographs and a minimum of five of the principles of
photography. For each photo you provide, write one or two sentences explaining why you chose
it and how it illustrates the principle(s) of photography listed.
