This is a weird shot personally. It shows different emotions whilst giving me different emotions. It shows 3 men 2 are not showing emotions while 1 is demonstrating emotions while holding a firearm. It shows a great rule of thirds by showing each face in the shot while not giving away a feeling of too much space. This shot here makes me feel scared.

This image by photographer Rachael Banks shows three men sitting in the back of a red ATV. The background of the image is full of lush greenery, with the trees stretching up the back of the image. The three men are staring at the camera, the man in the middle is holding a gun and has an expression of mild amusement. The other two men to his left and right wear disgruntled and slightly bored faces. The soft shadows underneath the trees are contrasted with the shart shadows underneath the bed of the truck in the foreground.

This image depicts three men sitting in the back of a red ATV. The man in the middle is holding up a gun, which is being pointed at the man to his left. The man in the middle has a mischievous smile, as if he is plotting a stealth revenge. The other two men to either side of him have a fair straight face, almost as if they were told to pose with a serious complexion. The background of this image is greenery. It is filled with tall green trees that take up the entire image. There seems to be some smoke in the far distance of the image. This background almost seems fake since the trees are so dense and luscious; thus, the image feels like a studio setup.

The person on the right seems to be smoking. It looks like there’s smoke around their head. The middle person is holding a gun and smiling a little bit. The person on the left is staring at the camera with nothing going on around him. The truck has a bit of dirt on the bottom. Come to think of it, I don’t even think the truck is a truck.

This image is of three boys on an old ATV. Most of the colors in this image are orange, red with hits of black and white. Their clothes look kind of old and dirty. They look like they probably get in trouble a lot. The lighting is very bright and vivid, there are a lot of trees in the background. The guy on the far right is smoking and the one in the middle is holding a gun towards the guy on the far right.

In this photo, there are 3 white boys who appear to be in the countryside sitting on a Kubota ATV. One of the boys is holding a firearm towards the boy on the right. He may be leaning forward so it may not be pointing at him but it is still too close to tell. But they do not seem to care that there is a gun near the head of another man. The boys seem to total country “acts”.

In this photo there are three white guys on a Kubota. One is holding a gun and the others have tattoos all over their bodies. In the background there is a big field surrounded by a forest. There is also a broken down swing behind the kids. They look like they are in their late teens to early twenties.
