I really like this picture because it shows a celebration. Graduation is a celebration and i think this picture shows this. It als shows cap in the air and shows how excited people are.

I like this picture because its different. The design is very different from the rest. Its a good picture because once again it shows a student in a cap and gown with a diploma and that represents graduation in a good and fun way.









This pictue is nice because it has alot of colors and it has graduation caps that represent graduation in a good way. The hats look like they are in the air which makes it seem like a celebration.
