Elements of Composition----Shape


This is my shape example for the elements of composition project. I was up in the bird tower in riverside park and it was a warmer day so there was a break in the river. I like this picture because it is just blue and white. I also like it because the strait break in the river really helps with showing how curvy the S curve break is.

Elements of composition-----Pattern



This is my example of a pattern/repetition. The day I took this photo was cold so the trees in the background were a little frosty. It was early in the morning and all the busses had just come back. There was someone in the garage washing the busses so the gate was open. We went in and thought of pictures we cound take in the bus garage and this is what we ended with. I like this picture because it also has shape along with the repetition as you can see... a sideways triangle.

Elements of Composition-----Line



This is my example of line for the elements of composition project. It was in the early morning when I took this picture and I used the power lines to represent my line. The thing I like the most out of this picture is that I made it so that the ground was relatively level and everything else was slightly on a diagonal. I also like that there is not many different colors, only blue.

Elements of Composition-----Perspective


This was my example of perspective for the Elements of composition project. I was down on the ground beside a hill of snow and a friend of mine jumped off the other side of the snow pile. I took the picture at the highest point of her jump and I also took the picture according to the rule of thirds. I like this picture because you cant see much of anything but the person and the sky.

Elements of Composition-------Light


This is my example of light for the elements of composition project. As you might be able to tell, there was a hole at the top of the tunnel I took the picture through giving a little bit of light to the rock and the rest of the focus point. I like this picture because it makes the rock at the back look fairly big even though the rock is only about the size of a thumb nail. :)

Elements of Composition-----Texture



This is my texture example. I like it because you can clearly see the frosty points. It was quite a cold day when I took this photo and I found it right next to a mountain of snow right by a school. I tried to blurr out the background using manual focus. I used a Didgital SLR Nikon for this picture and really enjoyed using that camera.

Shapes


This was the shape scavenger hunt. A friend and I went to an elementary school and found a hole in an old piece of the playground. It was quite bright outside so she stood slightly back from the hole and I stood on the other side to snap the shot. I took the picture just far enough away to see that there was a circle I was taking the picture through. This was my example of the circle shape. Enjoy.

Rule of Thirds

The "Rule of Thirds" project in Potography 11 was where we had specific focus points on the photos we took. The focus points were where the lines would cross if you would draw a tic tac toe board on you picture. This was my example of the "Rule of Thirds". I had someone run and when she ran into the first focus point (the top left corner) I snapped the picture.
Hope you enjoy it.
