Happy Akins Building
Happy
I think this is a really great picture. i really love the background and the huge smile from ear to ear on her face shows how happy she is which relates to the theme.
Akins
I really like this picture because its very thoughtful and it came out really good. Akins is an academic success and so is everyone in it everyone is a star at this school and everyone has great potential which relates to the theme.
Building
The background and the sun creeping in is a very good detail in this picture you can see part of a building from school which relates directly with the theme.

Magazine discussion
Cover Types
- Early Magazine covers- No photo they were either paintings or drawings all the time.big color spots to highlight it. no date line no price and no barcode. they tended to be very simple
- The Poster Cover-The picture and a headline.Some of the disadvantages is that the photo has to be really good to buy it otherwise they will look at it as dull.
- Pictures Married To Type-less text than forest of words. most words are on one side.text is involved with the photo.Looks a little boring since there are not many entry points.
- In The Forest Of Words.- Words All Over the cover Some in different colors others big others small different fonts.They distract you a lot and sometimes you dont see the full photograph
Stuff that should be on my magazine cover
- Title
- Photo
- Barcode
- Price
- Dateline.

#15 Harpers Bazaar (April 1965)
This magazine cover of Harpers Bazaar is a photograph of model Jean Shrimpton by photographer Richard Avedon. The cover of Shrimpton peering from behind a bright pink Day-Glo space helmet was designed by Art Directors Ruth Ansel and Bea Feitler. This photograph, with the Harpers Bazaar logo vibrating against it in acid green has been often reproduced as an emblem of the sixties.(Formal)
This Cover Catches my eye a lot. Even if its simple it still keeps you interested well to me. and i really like the color of her helmet its sort of a bright stand-out color. Also Jean Shrimpton is a really pretty girl and i think Richard Avedon did a very good portrait he got close and took a simple but eye catching picture. It may be seem a little dull for some people but everyone has their own taste.

Magazine cover
- You shouldn't mortify yourself if its simple sometimes simple colors and simple pictures stand out in between a clatter of other covers.
- It Should have something that stands out from the rest.
- It should be appealing and descent but keep you interested.
- It should cause the reader great curiosity and it should allure them into buying it and reading it.
- The reader should be pleased.

Portrait and Self-Portrait tips and ideas
Tips
- Have Fun With It. Be Sexy Be Yourself Be Awesome Be Different Be Creative. Whatever You Do have fun with it. Thats part of the point after all.
- Every time you hold your camera to your eye, look for leading lines, foreground elements, frames—anything you can use to lend dynamism to your image. Photographs are two dimensional but it helps if they look and feel three dimensional.
- Don't just stand there—sit, squat, lie down. The angle from which you make a photograph can make a dramatic difference.
I like these two pictures because their both environmental and their both nature-like and the in the first one the flowers are really pretty and in the second one the horse is very beautiful.
I Like These Two portraits because they show alot of emotion the two girls are both pretty and their simple.
I like these two photos because of their placement in the second one he is in rule of thirds and he just seems happy and in the first one they both seem comfortable and happy with eachother and the depth from the background is really pretty.
Well I plan to look for sunny places to take my portrait simply because i like when people come out smiling under the sunlight i see it very pretty or a really simple and bright picture.
