This picture was taken by a crested black macaque (Macaca nigra). The monkey is using a stolen camera and has produced a good example of a self portrait. The eyes are centered more or less around the upper-right intersection of the lines splitting the image into thirds, which serves to focus the viewers attention. In addition, the monkey has nice eyes and a beautiful smile; some of the best I've ever seen.



This picture showcases the raw, primal power of electrons. Some quick calculations using information gleaned from Wikipedia and Google lead me to conclude that there is enough energy in those bolts to stop the hearts of over 200 million people. Honestly, thinking about all the awesome force captured in this photo activates the primitive part of my brain used mainly for screaming. In the bottom left third of the picture you've got some brutal looking rocks that contribute to the unrefined nature of the picture. The lightning is contained in the middle third of the photo while the clouds and terrain fill the upper and lower third, respectively. Overall, this picture makes me want to party.



This picture is an atypical example of an excellent photograph. It is a simple fact that a mustache draws the human eye. A mustache is even more captivating if it is as full and beautiful as the mustache of Tom Selleck. By using the relatively simple formula of keeping a mustache in each third of the photo, the designer has created something irresistibly eye-catching (his eyes are mustaches).
