"Cover History"
1. Early Magazine Covers: In the mid 1700's they would put a title and table of contents as the magazine cover. They would also make them like book covers, only putting a title and the publication date. They didn't have cover lines until later in the 180o's.
2. The Poster Cover: in the 1890's and 1960's there was one cover that took over the other ones. more and more good illustrations came out in the 1900's. Most of the covers look as if you could frame them and hang them onto the wall.
3. Pictures Married to Type: In the 1940's and 1950's they began using cover lines.Starting to add color to the cover. And they add a lot of creativity in the cover lines especially in the fashion magazines.
4. In the Forest of Words: In the 21 century they started having more and more cover lines and it is as important as the cover picture. Some even contain cover lines bigger then the title itself!Poster covers mainly come put in music magazines, art and photo magazines,travel, and specials.

Tips!!!
Tips:
Add a prop of some kind into your shots and you create another point of interest that can enhance your shot.
Side-lighting can create mood, backlighting and silhouetting your subject to hide their features can be powerful.
The key with the above three methods is to use a slow enough shutter speed to capture the movement.
The alternative is to have your subject obviously move fast but to use a shutter speed so fast that it ‘freezes’ their movement.
In my mind I see most of my pictures having the sun or some sort of bright light. I plan to take a picture of my little cousin. But not sure if I can cause I need a camera with film! Im going to take the picture outside. I hope to find things that will grasp the photo more but not to take the attention from my subject.

Potraits and Self Potraits
I think this is a good picture cause it looks freaky!!! You can see only the dark in the person. This picture is just great cause of the bright colors. Its just a great self-potrait.
I think this potrait is amazing!!! You can see the person and the candles is just a good add to the picture. It makes his face more bright and pose it just great.Like this picture very much!!!
I really dont know I want to do a Potrait cause I think you can do more with other people. I want to do it dark some how but to where you can still see the person. But I want to make it weird in a way like something unusal to add to it! But for sure I aint going to do a self portrait!!!

Photos of the Year 2009
This photo amused me because of the surrounding of the man.He is just surrouned by many lines.Which is the compostion the photographer is showing as the lines lead to the man as he works. It looks really awesome.
This pictured amused me because of the light. The photographer uses reptition.And the holding of the light repeats itself.
This pictured amused me cause of the person is either stuck in the gate or isnt but it still looks fuuny. The photographer is using balance because both sides are almost balanced. I just really like this picture.
