      The website discussed useful tricks for taking intermediate level photos. Some types of photos discussed were fake tilt and shift, forced perspective, long exposure landscape, digital infrared, double exposure portrait, and 360 degree polar panorama photos. Some tricks were a matter of camera settings while some regarded photoshop or equipment.
      I chose this photo because I liked the double exposure tactic it used and what I felt like the photo represents. Some rules of photography used are viewpoint and simplicity. The photographer of this photo isn't provided.

      This site guides photographers to think outside of the box while shooting portraits. Some tips were to break the ice with the subject, exit the subject's comfort zone, direct the subject to look off camera, take advantage of negative space, break the rules of photography, and to tilt the horizon line.
