This image was taken by Paul Politis and is a perfect example of a interiorscape. It is part of a room that illustrates light, this is natural lighting coming through the panels of the doorway. Also because of the angle from which the photo is taken it gives a interesting take on shadows, the base of the stairs are completely covered in shadows on the walls and on the floor. Finally while the broken pieces of wood on the ground may not be furniture they due contribute to this image as an architectural detail. For the compositional techniques Politis uses leading lines from the paneling on the floors and the stairs leading down to the bottom and focusing on the lighting in the doorway.

This picture was taken by Brett Weston and is also a very beautiful picture of a landscape portrait. The natural lighting is unique and results in the trees reflecting off the water of the stream which gives and abstract image. Also since it is taken from far away it gives a full view of the landscape also for the compositional techniques the photographer uses filling the frame as well as rule of thirds. Along with this the portrait is in black and white so that gives it emotional depth and a vintage look. Overall this was a beautiful picture that perfectly demonstrates the landscape portrait concepts.

This subway picture was taken by Paul Raphaelson and demonstrates the urbanscape portrait. Because this image was taken on a subway it illustrates the idea of movement but also what the people do on subways. In this image the artist uses color well to help support this idea, the book is clearly shown but the person reading it is not which makes the viewer a bit curious. The compositional techniques that are applied here are leading lines because of the faint bars shown in the bottom/ middle right leading you into the center of the picture.
