In our first assignment, we were asked to read about and find examples of eleven elements of composition. These elements were pattern, rule of thirds, symmetry, texture, depth of field, lines, framing, perspective, space, balance, and color. We then were tasked with taking pictures of each of these composition elements and putting them into photoshop.com. Once we had created an album with the our best photo of each, we added it to our new blog.
Pattern - Trash Cans
Rule of Thirds - Payton from Saline
Symmetry - Benches
Texture - Red Diamonds
Depth of Field - Bee in Yellow
Lines- Jenny in the Street
Framing - Statue Beneath the Chair
Perspective - Up a Net
Space - Orange and A Girl
Balance - Pear & Apple
Color - Flower on the Rocks
In this assignment I learned many different ways to enhance my picture and make them more interesting. I was really surprised by how framing gave my photo a whole other dimension. Taking pictures for depth of field really helped me to emphasize the subject of my photo. I also learned that when you balance a photo, it really evens out what you are looking at. By using space I was able to really draw the eye more effectively to my subject.
