Pre-Lim Task Photography (A03)

I used a Polaroid point and shoot 7 .0 mega pixel camera to take these medium close up shots for the front cover of a college magazine. I am going to use the second picture for the magazine as it is the best medium close up, leaving room for a masthead at the top and it is a clear, flattering image of the model. The first picture is a close up and catches the model in an unflattering pose, meaning it would not be good to use for a magazine front cover. The last picture is ok in terms of it being a medium close up, however her hair is covering part of her face and the lighting for the picture I am going to use is better.
