Editing:

I really like this photo because of the way it’s taken completely hidden and is taken at an interesting angle. You can see the interior and exterior of the building both giving you ideas about who the subject is.

I really like this image because it’s taken without the subject’s knowledge and you have interest in both the background and the forground.

I think this image is interesting because there’s a lot in the image and at the center of it all you have the subject gnawing on an icecream. I also like the vibrancy of the image and the amount of detail in it. I like the wide angle of the room so that you can see pictures on the walls that tell you about the person and shows you the faces of their family and their past.
