Critique #2

Briana

1. The intended color was yellow. I like the lines in the field but wish there were more players so that the flag really stood out. 
2. The colors could be brighter. I feel like I know the car is green, but I want it to be more vibrant and clear. 
3. Would have been more interesting as a close-up, but I like her use of the rule of thirds here.
4. I like this one, the converging lines are conveyed well and the single brown filter of the cigarette is very outstanding. 
5. I feel like I really had to search for the blue hint behind the wood here. 
6. I cannot tell what color she was actually intending on capturing, I feel like there are only dull shades of grays and browns. 
7. I really wish she would have focused more on the brown and less on the green so that it would have that extra pop and stand out from the live part of the bush. 
8. Same with this photo, the focus isn't in the right place. 
9. I like the focus on the orange, but want a more creative point of view. I feel like I don't want to be able to tell exactly where this is in the world. 
10. I love this one, you can see the subtle bits of pink in the little sprouts but at the same time the green is very vibrant and distinct against the brown mulch.

     Deanna's picture is copyrighten on her flickr, so I've included a link to the photo.

     The photo is of the "Friday Night Lights" at my old high school. The picture really gets to me because all throughout high school, football was the most important thing in everyone's lives. I went to a small-town high school in Bulverde, Texas. Smithson Valley's football players were legends in our town. The boys knew exactly how to play the game and they lived, breathed, and loved the game. But they weren't only playing for them. We all got something out of their sport. Every Friday night, the big "SV" on the hill lit on fire, the lights shone brightly on the field, and every one in town parked as far as highway 46 to get to the game. Since graduating in 2010, that's the only thing I've missed about Smithson Valley: the lights, the crowd. After a long week, we all united on the bleachers to cheer on our boys. I haven't had that sense of relief in over a year, and, thankfully, UTSA finally adopted a football team of their own where, coincidentally, football players from my Smithson Valley class were recruited. 

     This picture not only reminds me of everything I miss about the old Smithson Valley tradition, but also instills excitement about the new traditions that are blossoming here at UTSA. It may only be a sport, but I've seen much more school spirit come out of this university because of football, and I can't wait to see how much more we can get.
