Asymmetry

These photos are asymmetrical. Asymmetry is when the photos aren't a perfect mirror image from left to right.

Symmetry

These photos are all symmetrical so they are mirror images on both sides. I used patterns in buildings and trees to show symmetry. Symmetry is when an image can be folded down the middle and look the same on both sides.

Balance

These photos are examples of balance within a shot. I took pictures of silhouettes to create an obscure image. The action happens in one part of the photo and this creates balance.

Decorative, leading and subtle line photos.

     

The lines in these photos are supposed to lead your eye to a specific part of the image. The lines are decorative, subtle and directional. I used the light to create different types of lines. I used subtle lines to make some of the images more stimulating. 

Repetition

All of these photos have repetition of a certain shape in them.  The shapes in the photo are lined up in the pictures.

Depth Staging.

  

These photos are examples of creating space within an image. I wanted to establish a clear foreground and background to show the depth in the photo.

Leading Lines

 

These pictures all have lines in them that lead to different directions.  I wanted to have the lines cutting through the photo.  I liked the idea of using the light to create leading lines in my photos. 

Triangle "like" photos.

These are triangular photos. I wanted to capture figurative triangles which require more time to find. I like the idea of looking more carefully at things to find a good picture in that space. A triangle photo is when you have an image which implies a triangular shape. Some of these images are actually triangles and some are more abstract.
