I created a 3x3 grid over the photo of Bradley Cooper.

On the axis of the points:

-I positioned Bradley

-I added text on 2 different points

The significant text is shaded red to draw attention.

I chose this picture because I liked the composition in the colors. The rule of thirds is also present as the thin line of yellow between the clouds and the sky is in the lower third. Also, when you look closely there is a ship in the distance in the bottom middle of the picture which really balances everything out.

Opportunity dresses in overalls

So I found this quote online and thought this picture exemplified a solid old man in overalls who looks like he has created opportunity through his life.  He visually takes up vertical left two thirds and so it left good spacing for the quote on the right side, and created asymmetrical balance.  I chose a simple font and put a white box on low opacity behind it to create better readability.  I placed the text with the top at the sweet upper right spot so it is visually at ease.

What you're looking at is an audio board grid from BYU Broadcasting. I tried to make the picture as symmetrical as possible. There are 8 slide faders that balance the picture from the bottom to the middle of the picture. It become asymmetrical as you approach the top of the photo. There are unique knobs on the top left, blue and red button in the top middle, and a keyboard in the top right. There are unique numbers spread across the board that deal with decibel values and whatnot. It's not as confusing as it looks!

The balance here is asymmetrical, as the small letters and logo balance out the bigger image on the right. By reading the text, it takes you down to the logo, which then - through the shoulder - redirects you to his eyes. I chose the black, white and red to emphasize this specific character, as his eyes are red in the anime. The text is a quote from him. 

Composition

This picture has an asymmetrical look to it. While, the left and right sides are not reflections of another, there is still a sense of balance. The weight of the words balance out the weight of the woman's silhouette. This picture, like all others, says a thousand words. It's such a fun and interesting way to convey the message of travel and discovery. The colors that make up the picture are calm and earthy tones. The message is inspiring without being too pushy. The typeface is inviting and pretty. The period at the end of the sentence gives the phrase a little more umph. It also gives the picture a more serious tone without being too stuffy. The word "live" says a lot. It urges people to not only complete their bucket list but to incorporate it into their lives consistently. I also think the placement of the words is interesting. It almost looks like the woman is whispering, "Live your bucket list."

Composition/Grid

For this image, I wanted the two main objects to be on opposite ends to follow the rule of thirds. Placing the text opposite of the boat creates an asymmetrical balance. Most of the colors in this image are fairly muted so I also made the text a similar shade of blue as the blanket on the boat to connect the eye to the main pieces in the image. The rule of thirds is very effective in creating a calming scene.
