Foreground Background

In this assignment we focused on depth, specifically through foreground background which is having a subject in the front and then one in the back, far enough away so that you can see the depth. I tried to use plants (and in one case a guinea pig home) in my pictures as one of the subjects. Enjoy!

Leading Lines

This assignment was to take pictures that have depth. The particular technique we used to do so is called leading lines. This is, as you can tell from my example below, where there is a long line that draws your eyes from the front of the picture to the back where sometimes a subject is placed. I did my assignment and tried to really play with lighting and nature as well as the editing afterward. Enjoy!

Rule of Thirds

The Rule of Thirds is an assignment where the subject has to be in the on of the four corners of the grid if you put it on the picture. I tried using different angles to get the right picture. I also tried to use light and dark and intensify the contrast on picnik.com. Enjoy!

3x3

The purpose of this assignment was to take pictures from three different angles at three different distances. I decided to take pictures of people from the different angles and distances. I thought that if I looked at the frozen moment for long enough I could find the right way to take the picture. I think my pictures really express the way I went about taking them.
