Photo walk


I took this photo because there are numerous elements that will change with the season. The leaves will begin to change colors and then eventually fall off. The grass with turn brown then be covered with snow. Lastly the decorations will change for Christmas.

Composition Book

Leading Line

Stair case        Rebecca Genao 2014


Leading Line:  A line that lead you to an object or that leads into the distance creating depth.


      This photo is an example of leading line containing an object that leads the viewer into the distance. In this picture in particular the hand railing in the bottom right catches the viewer’s eyes first. It then leads their eyes into the distance of the picture.


Vertical

Tobi        Rebecca Genao 2014


Vertical: Picture is taller than it is wider

      This picture works well for the vertical element because the subject in it is standing on two feet. This means that the subject is taller than he is wide. Also this image was taking in portrait view.


Framing

Justin Morgan        Rebecca Genao 2014


Framing: Shooting through something to get the main subject behind it. The subject is “framed” by something in the foreground.

      This picture depicts framing because the subject is being photographed through something in the distance. In this picture the subject is seen shooting a picture of his own. In the process he is standing between two poles framing him as the main subject.


Distance Close

Up close and personal        Rebecca Genao 2014


      This photo is an example of close distance because the viewer is able to see anything but what the photographer wants them to see. You are able to see the hairs on the subject’s face vividly. Even though the photo is taken at a close range you are still able to make out what the image is of.


Informal Balance

Sydney and Gabby        Rebecca Genao 2014

Informal Balance: Different things catch your eye, not just one.

      The image above shows informal balance because there is more than one subject catching the viewer’s attention. Even though the subjects in the picture are wearing the same substance on their face they are at different levels of the picture. This causes the viewer to look away from one subject to see the other.
