Page 7 photos:
1. The lighting in the 1st photo (very top, biggest one) is not bad, but it could be brighter. The impact of this photo on the page is very big, because it takes up a little less than 1/3 of the page. The impact of the photo on the story it goes with is very big, because it relates to the story and it gives you information you couldn't get off just the story. The main subject(s) is Maddy Sparkes and Black Pousson. In the photo, a rule of composition I see is Simplicity, because the background is black. I feel like the photo could've been exposed more, because it is kinda dark.
2. The lighting in the middle ones are actually quite good, since in theater it is pretty hard to get good lighting. The impact of these (all together) is about 1/6th of the page, since they are not that big.
3. The lighting of the very bottom left one (corner) is actually nice, because it makes a special effect. The impact of this photo is not much, because it is a pretty small picture. The main subject of this picture is senior Piper Koopser. In the photo, a rule of composition I can see is Rule of Thirds, because she is on the right third of the photo.

Page 16 Photos:
1. The lighting in the 1st one (very top) is pretty nice, because it is not over exposed and it isn't too dark. The impact of this photo is very important and major, because it is what connects the whole story together. The main subject is a pottery vase being painted by senior Fen Hendon. In this photo a rule of composition I see is blurry/ motion effect, because you can see his hands are in focus but the vase seems shake/blurred.
2. The lighting in the second photo ( in the middle: left one) is okay. It isn't too dark, but it could be a bit brighter to show balance. The impact is photo is somewhat major, because it ties in to the story, but it isn't needed. The main subject of this picture is Senior Fen Hendon. In this photo a rule of composition I see is Rule of Thirds, because he is not centered, he is in the left third of the camera.
3. The lighting in the third one (middle right) is nicely exposed, since it was taken outside. The impact of this photo would probably be the biggest, because it shows how his love for poetry is given to the people he loves. The main subject of this photo is the same as the other: Fen Hendon. A rule of thirds I see is Simplicity, because the background is nature so it is very simple. I feel like the photo couldn't have been better in terms of exposure.

My favorite picture on Page 16 was the one at the very bottom left corner, because I thought it was cool how you can see how he interacts with the pottery itself. My least favorite photo was the bottom middle picture, because I didn't like the exposure. The rules of photography that are evident are Rule of Thirds and Simplicity.

My favorite picture on Page 7 was the bottom left corner one, because her shadow gave her a creepy but cool effect. My least favorite picture was the one on the middle/ bottom one where the guy s laying against the sofa, because I didn't think it was needed. A rule of composition that was evident is Rule of Thirds and Lines.

 I think that the one that would've been fun to write would be #MeToo, because I could definitely relate to it, since I am a female. Overall I would rate the photography in this issue pretty good, because the exposure was pretty good in most of them. A strong point would be that they definitely added cool special effects and rules of composition. A weak point would be that some photos had bad lighting, but they were okay.
