Elements of Art and Rules of Composition

The photo illustrates avoid the middle because its taken from a side view instead of from the front like is accustomed. The photo also suggests forms because of the many shapes in the background. Avoid the middle and forms are different because avoid the middle is taken from side views and taken away from the center while forms involves different shapes and 3-D images.

The lighting in this picture was made darker and gives it an almost dull appearance.

I chose to give the picture a look that made it seem as if there were a lot of sun when the picture was taken.

This picture has a dark effect.

My Photo Assignment

                                                                   My Photos

This effect is called" thermal camera", I chose it because it made my eyes look brighter and showed a large amount of light towards my face.

I

This other effect I chose was called "glow", I picked it because I liked how it gave an almost soft texture to my face making it look just a bit blurry.

Another effect I chose was "pop art" because it gave a fuller definition of my eyelashes.

One effect I used was "sepia" because it gave an old-fashioned look to my photo.

The final effect I used was "mirror" because it created  the illusion that there was two of me in the photo.

Composition

 Composition is the combining of different parts to form a whole. In photography, composition is the placement or arrangement of visual elements or ingredients in a work of art, as distinct from the subject of a work.It can also be thought of as the organization of the elements of art according to the principles of art.

Shadows

Our Shadows
 Our shadows are something we see everyday. They follow us everywhere. A shadow is a rough image cast by an object blocking light from a light source . Objects that do not let light through are called opaque. The sizes of shadows change depending on where the light source and object are placed. From this , we learn that a shadow gets larger if the object is closer to the light source. Light cannot bend around objects.

Looking at Light

             When looking at light, you can see it bounce off each persons face. Their faces look much clearer and visible to the eye. You can see each facial feature on their face and their clothes seem to become brighter and "pop out" more.
