Favorite Photo
After looking at the photos "From Smartphones to Museum Walls," I really like the second photo. Firstly, I like the second photo because the setting looks really nice. Secondly, I like the photo because I think it's creative how they all have their hammocks tied to a tree. Finally, the trees and the lighting really brightens up the photo and makes it look really nice.
