Rule of Framing

This picture is perfect for this rule. The rule of framing focuses on the way the main objects are inside or in between some kind of shape. When you look at this picture, ou can see that the twin towers are inside the black triangular looking shape.

Rule of Balance

I chose this picture for the rule of balance, because it kinda forms a triangle with the people in the back and the man in the front. The rule of balance is about what the people or objects in the picture form so i think this is a good example for this rule.

Rule of lines

I chose this picture for the rule of lines, because the line patterns of the building. The lines gives focus to the person that's falling out of the tower.

Rule of thirds

I chose this picture for the rule of thirds, because of the alignment of the three men. It is in the tik tak toe line and it is perfect of this rule. 

Simplicity

I chose this picture for simplicity, because it focuses only on the two towers and it doesn't have any distracting objects around it. I also like the angle in which it was taken and it wraps up to be a perfectly shot picture.
