Merger Photo Preview
1. The fence behind the girls doesn't stretch all the way across the frame, the girls are positioned oddly, there is a weird line that looks like a hose running across the field in-between the girls, and the shadows of the girls don't line up at all.
2. I think a good place to take these kinds of photos would be a wide field or somewhere with a really simple background.
3. Something creative we could do would to have a person doing some sort of action in a sequence or have an object put in a different place each time you take a picture.
4. If you wore a dark color, it might help out with the photo shoot.

HDR Photography Preview
1. You will need to take several pictures by manipulating different shutter speeds and put the pictures together after you've shot all of them.
2. In order to take this kind of picture, you will need a camera, tripod, and HDR photo-blending software.
3. People would take an HDR photo if the scene they're shooting has blown-out highlights and flat shadows. The HDR technique would fix all of these problems.
4. Once we merge the photos, we can expect to see more of a clarity to the photos and much more detail that would've been lost without the HDR technique.

Opinions Writing Preview Activity

3. "DeVos has displayed beneficial visions for lower-income students and families, but is simply unqualified for a role in the U.S. Education Department."
4. Yes
5. Yes, the author was a bit wishy-washy on the topic, because they would give a reason why someone would like her, then immediately contradict it with their opinion.

7. 1st person

7. 1st person
A. The differences between a hard news story and an opinion story is that one is hard facts and the other is just what someone thinks. The hard news probably contains statistics and specific data for a topic, and the opinions one just has quotes on what other people think. Not only do opinion stories not have specific statistics, but they most likely aren't supported by any important companies.
B. There probably aren't very many pictures because the the authors wanted to support their own opinion with a picture of their own. It's hard to come up with a picture to support your opinion.
C. Politics, School issues, and Trending topics
