Photo #1 - Emphasizing the subject by its size and off-center placement.
Subject:  Our Dog,  Lena     Time of Day:   11:56am                                                               
Filters:  None ISO:  200   Lighting Conditions:  Bright sun, open shade
Lens focal  length:  85.0mm      F-stop:  1.8       Shutter speed:   1/640
~ #1 Works fine for the assignment. Kinda liked that he's right
behind her.  Loves the intensity of the eyes, likes the negative space, just
enough to make the photo work without it being too much.  Would have liked it to be pulled out so
the top of his (person's) head showed.  Not loving the quality of the prints.  Barring perking her head
up, really good shot aside from the top of his head.

Subject:  Old  Glory      Time of Day:  12:30  pm

 Lens focal length:  85mm     F-stop:  11.0   Shutter speed:   1/125
#2 
Point of view of the assignment this works fine.   Not a huge fan of framing
with leaves, but here it works bc the leaves go  black.  One of the things  you
could do would be to, and not recommending what to do, but we (professional photographers)
 spend a lot  of time in post-production, so suggested I clone the leaves and fill  all the way 
around.   Other than that the image works quite well.  Suggested that I invest in a polarizing filter to intensify my blues, to deepen the sky.

Photo #3 - Using leading lines to draw attention to your subject.
Subject:  Dog &  Master   Time of Day:   10:52am                                                               
Filters:  None   ISO:  400       Lighting Conditions:  Bright sun, open shade
Lens focal  length:  85mm    F-stop:  9.0   Shutter speed:  1/100
Works fine - three for three on the project.  Still too much dead space  behind 
the subject.  Find a different place to shoot ~  didn't like the shadows.  Leading
line was buried too much in the front.  Lift up and try to grab the top of the
fence.  And find someplace to shoot without all the shadows.  But didn't suggest I re-shoot.
