I like this painting because it is so lonely. This seems like a place that should be full of people, but it is completely deserted.

This photograph is interesting to me because of the balance. There is almost an equal amount of foreground and background. The weight of the brown ground balances out the busyness of the clouds and the buildings on the top.

I chose this image because it has interesting subject matter. Putting images of high school football players into a fine art and gallery setting isn't something that I expected.
Images of my own:

I chose this picture because I like the range in distance included in the image from the water in the foreground to the mountains in the distance.
I like this image because it puts the viewer in exactly my position when I took the picture. I also really like the view.
I like this image mostly because of how the subject matter in the background is framed by the trees in the foreground.
