1. For the room creativity expectation I plan on framing different photos that I have taken throughout the year and setting one on each group of desks, since I might not have enough room on the walls of the class room that I will be presenting in. However if I do I end up having enough room on the wall then I will put up many of my photographs to create a kind of gallery feel in the room.
2. For my first activity I am thinking about perhaps having each group of students create their own photograph according to what they think a well composed photograph looks like. For my second activity I am thinking about maybe having each group come up with a certain message or emotion that they wish to convey while then coming up with ways to convey those emotions in a photograph.

Answer 2
Essential Question: What is most important in creating a visually appealing nature photograph?
Answer 2: I have learned that one of the most important things in a photograph is the message that is conveyed by the image because it is what grabs the viewers attention from the first time they see the photograph. It is what will interest the viewer, in wanting to keep looking at the photograph and many times when it involves nature it makes the viewer want to be in the photo's setting and that is one of the things that makes a picture visually appealing.
Evidence and Sources:
-Much of the evidence that I got for this answer was from many articles that I have read, which state that a photographer's goal is to create an image in which the viewer would feel what the photographer felt when taking the photograph.
- I have also learned this from my third interview with Bob Fletcher a Nature Photographer who also told me that as a photographer you want to make the observer feel what you are feeling as you are standing there taking the photograph.
- From Jack Bolkah my ROP teacher I have learned that in order for a person to keep taking a second look at your image you have to create a photograph in which they may have a feeling or connection with.

The Product
as of March my product is the improvement in my photography skills because since I started taking rop for my service learning my photography skills and knowledge have improved greatly compared to what I knew about taking photos before september.
examples are how we are taught a certain concept or technique and then we are expected to find our own creative way to use and apply that technique in the photographs that we create, and according to how great we do in applying what we learn, we then get graded on that.
I will provide evidence by posting photographs from before I began taking rop and photographs from now that I have taken rop and showing my improvement from then until now.
