The first two photos are the ones I chose. They both are heavily influenced by colour. The first one uses it cleverly to highlight the environment around the children, while the second one uses it for aethetic purposes. Both photos also highlight the environment around the subject, but in different ways. The description of the first photo states that the photographer wanted to contrast the playfulness of the boys and the building (which is associated with poverty). The second photo attempts to reflect the happiness of the photographer at traveling, due to his mom taking him a bunch of places when he was younger. The first photo did a really good job sending its message, while the second one did not, along with not having a very good message in the first place. I liked the first one much more.
We decided that the third photo was the winner, because it uses colour, lighting, and the entire environment functions well as a subject. The woman in the center is clearly sad about something, and the colours+lighting reflect that along with her expression. It was the one that most used the entire photo to send the message, which alone was a very strong message.
