Front Pages of the World

1. My favorite newspaper page is austin, tx because I live in Austin.
2. My favorite headline is "Immigrants in Austin Express Outrage, Fear" 
3. theres four stories
4. I noticed that the important headlines are in bigger font and the subtitles are smaller but still eye catching.
5. I noticed that the number of pictures for all newspapers are different. some have just a main photo, but others have many smaller pictures. I guess it just depends on the layout.

  Notes:
1. In Bowie's school newspaper, i normally understand whats going on just by looking at the headlines because i go here. However, if its not about Bowie, I may have to read more to get all the information.
2. The pictures are the thing that stands out the most in the Bowie newspaper. Just from the pictures, I can tell what is going on.
3. theres two stories on the cover
4. I think that more stories and pictures would be a good improvement to make.
5. Yes, the title is the biggest, and there is two photos. However, they differ in size.
6. I really like this school newspaper because on the cover it focuses on the two main topics and the topics on the inside are all different and appealing.

Website Review

I looked at the PetaPixel website. The point of this website is to provide many different photography articles. The articles are all different but are all based on photography. Anyone can click on whatever looks the most interesting to them and read an entire article about it with photos showing different things. I would bookmark this website because I like how it shows the top winning photos of 2017 and I enjoy looking at the different kinds of pictures. I would definitely recommend this website because it provides a lot of unique and interesting information about photography, and its helpful to know if you want to start to get into photography.
I give this website a five star rating because this website was very insightful and helpful.





I chose this photograph from the article about the top underwater photos of 2017. I chose it because I thought this was a really great picture. The lighting is clear and clean and on top of that the blue water makes sea creature stand out. I learned that this was the number one photograph that French photographer Gabriel Barathieu took. I think underwater photography is so cool because of all the effort that goes into the shots. Also, it allows us to see what goes on down beneath the water.
