Only words to say is WOW! The composition that is being used in this photo is lines, You see lines in the sort of formation of waves  forming, in the ocean. He used the technique of shooting from top view.

This photo is sad because, seeing how this half of the road got seperated by its other half.  The composition this photographer used  was leading lines the lines in the road leading to the other workers.

 This photo is sort of weird. , the composition used is repition. on all the cars next to each other and all sort of the same color , and funny how there is only two cars thar are colored and the rest are white.
