I chose this photo because I liked how they picked the place to take the shot, it made it like they really were in the wood and making ghost out of a sheet. Moreover, the vacuum cleaner was quite funny of how they were trying to let the sheet fly in the sky. The boy with long pants, the way he was looking at the ghost was really realistic; like three of them were having tons of fun in the wood.

I chose this photo because I liked how it was so realistic. The girl was pulling the red short boy up, and the other boy is pulling the girl up. Also how they are standing on the rock, make me think they really are on a big rock. For the background, there are grass and few rocks makes it more like they're rock climbing.

I chose this photo because I liked how it reminds me of Harry Pottor. It is one of  my favorite movie and I love all of the characters in there. In this picture they sit on the broom stick, shows that they are really flying in the sky with the broom stick; especially they didn't put their head on the ground, they kinda tilt a little and make it more real. Moreover, the cloak feels like there are wind blowing.
