BLOOD.

I noticed the texture of the bloody knife and the scales on it, so I had to figure out how to capture it and make an interesting photo. I drew attention to the knife by color blocking its background which makes it's silver blade stand out more.  I also used the cracks in the sidewalk and leading lines to draw attention to the knife. Lastly, I shot this on a rule of thirds basis to make the photo interesting. 

LOST.

Here, I wanted this to almost pull the viewer into the water. I used leading lines that disappear in the bottom corners of the frame to accomplish that. I also aimed to create symmetry and emphasize the shadows on the objects in the foreground.
