  2. What photographic techniques were used in this assignment? How so? 
  3. How was light used in the photograph?
  4. Did the student tell a story through their series of images? How so?

  2. What collage could be made stronger? How so? 
  3. Select the one that tells the strongest story? 
  4. Choose one that is confusing to you? What could the photographer do differently?
