 * 1)  Explain what type of lighting (artificial: dramatic, flash, studio fill or natural: available, outside) __If you need a review on lighting click here.__
 * 1)  Natural → natural lighting that you don’t need to create
 * 1)  Outside → there is natural lighting outside such as the sun, moon, fire light from a bonfire, and light that is reflected off of clouds and such.
 * 1)  Inside → there is also natural lighting inside such as light coming through a window or other light source, candles, and fireplaces.
 * 1)  Artificial → artificial light is light that you need to create because it won't be there on its own.
 * 1)  Sources → flash, strobe light, lamps, lights anything that isn't natural and that is man made
 * 1)  Explain what type of compositional technique (leading lines, rule of thirds, framing, fill the frame, level horizon, focal point and point of view) the artist used to create their portraits.
 * 1)  The artist I spent most of my time looking at was Annie Leibovitz because I thought her composition was very neat and very clever. She used lots compositional techniques such as the rule of thirds, focal point, interesting point of view, leading lines, framing, and leven horizon. In the images above there are many examples of the techniques she uses in her art.
 * 1)  Tell who the artist is that shot the photo and the title of the image if available. If you use flickr.com images you may not get the actual name of the person so use their username.
 * 1)  The artist who shot these photos was Annie Leibovitz and the names of the images were Whoopi Goldberg, Mikhail Baryshnikov, Martina Navratilova, and Meryl Streep. The names of the photographs are just the names of the person in the photo so they are not very unique they are very simple.
 * 1)  Make sure you cite the source where you got the photo (web link not just google images. Need to list the actual site)
 * 1)  I got all of the images above from the same website because I really like Annie Leibovitz’s work. Its very clean and neat and it’s s pleasing and satisfying to look at. The web address is → [|__http://www.pbs.org/wnet/americanmasters/annie-leibovitz-photo-gallery/19/__]
 * A: How do these artists make their portraits become true works of art, not just snapshots?
 * This artist really makes her work come alive. You canfel the emotion and the vibe that she is trying to portray because of the colors, emotions and techniques she used.
 * A: What lighting and compositional techniques are evident in the photographer's work?
 * Annie uses lots of different techniques that work very well. She does a very nice job of filling the frame and especially coming up with an interesting point of view. These techniques help me stay interested and help anyone who will look at her piece feel the emotions she is portraying in the piece. She also does a very nice job with the elements and principles such as color, texture, and shape. All of these skills that she uses work very nicely together to end up with a successful piece in the end.
 * A: How might their artwork influence your own?
 * This art has influenced me to come up with many different ideas for points of view, lighting, color schemes, and so on. I looked at a lot of different artists online and I just could not get over how neat her art is and how it made me feel. There was so much emotion that was being shown through something so simple.
