Front Pages of the world

1) The Star, due to its main front page story.
2)

3) Shelby, North Carolina
4) " Officials: 2,000 of meth found on woman ", I'm interested because it sounds ridiculous and hysterical.
5) 5 stories are on the front page
6) The main photo has a general giant caption is surrounded by other "main card" stories with short captions.
7) The design of each front page is different, the eye line of the photo can be all sorts of different, there could be one main story with one general cation only vs, a main story with multiple smaller stories, headers are constructed differently with different fonts and sz's for varying titles, and the way the front page is layed out.

3 photos and paragraph summaries

 This photo is one of my fans from 2013 because of the atmosphere, and settle, the lightening bolt is grew.Ths picture displays the rule of thirds and balance. The power of the dark storm in this picture is the main idea, the theme over the city. It gives off a sort of action filled tone.
 This photo is also another great one from 2013, i like how it is directly focused on british royalty. The tone of this photo is happiness and the power of this photo is shown in the power of love between a family. This image is somewhat blurry. This photograph has good lighting.
This is my favorite photo because the man jumping over the burning tires is ridiculous, the tone screams action, perhaps the theme is chasing something or someone. The emotions given off are fear and suspense. The photo has good lighting.

                                                   5 FROM 2013
best song- Jealous by Fredo Santana and Kendrick Lamar, my main choice was this song because rap music is my favorite genre and those rappers are both amazing so even better when put together on one song. Its the best of 2013 because of the collaboration and its lyrics and rappers attracted me to it.

best movie- I liked box office's pain and gain starring the rock and mark wahlberg, i loved this film although it didn't get great reviews, i was drawn in by the actors and find this as my top choice because the film shows a perfect heist with great acting and it was inspirational kind of. It was exhilarating and great, had me at the edge of my seat.

most important news- The death of paul walker, this was the most important news of the year because this actor was loved by many and had multiple amazing films even outside the fast and the furious saga.  I accepted this news because with much disappointment upon finding out which is why i make it the most important news of 2013 for me.

most important person- My girlfriend was the most important person in 2013, i spent every weekend of like most weekends with her. She is the most important girl in the world to me, we've been together for what seems like a very long time now after finally getting through a year so long ago. She is who i dedicate most my time to and she is my best friend so she makes the 2013 top.

biggest sports or entertainment or person of 2013- Id have to say miley cyrus as she played off the whole bad girl, rebel face off. She is an inspiration to many young girls of today as getting through her split with ex fiancé. She's the biggest person of 2013 from her multiple hits on the radio and all the publicity for her tv events.
