Japanese Earthquake

Looking at this photo it makes everything that happened in Japan seem so horrible. This photo really shows how badly the houses in Japan were damaged because this photo of the two children were just thrown out of someones house so easily by the earthquake and tsunami. The photographer made sure that he used the rule of thirds by making sure that the photo of the children was in the left hand side of this picture. The lighting effect really helped bring the focus to the picture of the two children.

This photo of cargo containers shows how easy it was for the earthquake and tsunami to completely destroy part of Japan. This picture is very powerful because the entire town is just a huge mess completely filled with all of these cargo containers. The photographer used the patterns rule because there is nothing else in this picture except for the cargo containers. It really makes this picture pop out with all of the different colors of the cargo containers.

This photograph shows the complete destruction of the town in Japan. This burning factory really explains how bad it was in Japan after this disaster. Looking at this photo really makes me feel bad for the Japanese people and it shows that they are strong people because they choose to stick around and rebuild the community. This photographer used the rule of thirds to emphasize the burning factory. The smoke was so heavy that it sort of helps frame the photo.
