Final:

For the grave with the wreath on it I: cropped it so that the parts of the picture I wanted would fit in the gap between the poles lightened it so the snow would match the tone of the other snow more used the burn tool on the actual grave to make it darker and provide more contrast used the stamp tool to add snow inside one of the little loops in the rope where there was a gap so that there would be snow instead of nothing

For the heart with the purple ribbons I: cropped it so it would fit in the gap between the poles

For the barn I: cropped it so it would fit in the gaps between the poles changed the levels to make the leafs and barn a little brighter and more contrasting

For the poles I: cropped out gaps for the spots that I filled with the other photos burned the poles in order to make it stand out more above the other pictures used the stamp tool to make the pole wider in order to fill a gap left between the poles and the picture of the barn

in this photograph I used the rule of thirds, filled the frame, framing, and leading lines. For the rule of thirds I have an object placed in each of the points of interest and I filled the frame busing the entire space for the picture and not leaving blank empty space or areas without any subject. I also used the poles to frame the different aspects of the photo and had the poles, ribbons, and branches of the tree used as leading lines to move the viewer's attention from one space to another. I really emphasized the texture of the bushes and wreaths as well as the rope which is one of the main textures emphasized placed slightly off center holding the entire photo together. I feel like i was pretty successful with this assignment but next time I think I could really focus to make sure I have the correct light setting and settings on the camera in order to get a picture with the correct brightness.
