"Shutter Speed"

                                    This picture appears to be completely white because the shutter speed 

                     was set at 1 second.

                                                                                   1/2 sec.

                                                                               1/3 sec.

                                                                    1/10 sec.

                                                                     1/40 sec.

                                                                       1/60 sec.

"ISO"

              For this picture I set the ISO at 100. This picture as well as the others in this assignment use the rule of thirds.

              I set the ISO at 200 in order to get this image.

              The ISO is set at 400.

         The ISO is set at 600 in this picture.

            For this picture, the ISO was se tat 800.

            In this photo the ISO was set at 1600.

"Rule of Thirds"

 

               The basketball net and backboard in this picture follow the rule of thirds. I think that the low lighting worked well in this picture, causing you to focus on the basketball net, which is the focal point of the image, and not be distracted by a ton of unnecessary light. 

    
 This is a good example of the rule of thirds which is shown by my friend, and the steps lead your eye to the door at the top right hand corner of the photo (which uses the rule of thirds as well).

        Again, my friend demonstrates the rule of thirds. The steps lead the viewer's eyes to the door of the building.

     
          This picture is effective because the reptile (mainly its head) uses the rule of thirds. I also really like the lighting in this photo. The brightness enhances the depth of the photo.

            This tiny foreign sea creature uses the rule of thirds. I also think that this picture has a good balance, and is very colorful and intriguing.

"Lines"

           I think this picture is effective because the horizontal/ almost diagonal lines on the road lead your eye. The road uses the rule of thirds. Also, I really like the bright lighting.

           This photo displays horizontal, vertical, and diagonal lines in the wood panels of the wooden deck and chair. The wooden post on the right of the picture uses the rule of thirds.

       I think that the poles in this ocean represent vertical and horizontal lines well. They make a really unique picture. The poles on the left side also use the rule of thirds.

         This picture is balanced and features vertical lines in the poles holding up the larger bridge, diagonal lines on the blue walkway bridge (which lead the eye), and the sun's reflection in the water is a good example of a perspective line. I like the overall composition of this picture- it's very busy, yet it fits together well.

               I feel that this picture is effective because it is very simple. The tree's trunk (well, it's more of a stick) is a vertical line that leads your eye to the top of the tree.

            This photo fits together well because the ground uses the rule of thirds, and the picture is very balanced and symmetrical. Vertical and horizontal lines form the bars of the fence.

            This ladder shows horizontal, vertical and diagonal lines. I think that this photo is effective mainly because of the interesting angle it was taken from and because of the contrast that the red slide and colorful playground in the background have against the white sky and dark trees.

 
            This photo pretty much displays every type of line. I think that the angle it was taken from added to its visual appeal. It uses the rule of thirds as well.

         I like this picture because it allows the audience to look from a different perspective- through the rings of a fence. The diagonal lines in this photo give it somewhat of a pattern and consistency, making it balanced.

"Framing"

        I think that this picture is an accurate representation of framing. The trees in the foreground frame the trees in the distance, drawing your eye to them. They also frame the highlighted grass in the center of the picture. One or two of the trees uses the rule of thirds.

        This pic is effective because it is a very basic example of framing. The black rectangle frames the red treble clef, and the collage frames everything inside of the frame. The composition displays balance and is also somewhat symmetrical.

        I enjoy this picture. The jellyfish tank is framed by the dark walls. The contrast draws your eye to the jellyfish in the water. It almost looks like the tank is floating. This picture also shows balance and symmetry.

        Framing is shown in the yellow poles of the swing set which frame the swings. A couple of the trees use the rule of thirds.

        This photo of a tire swing shows framing- the poles frame the swing. I also like the low lighting used in the photo, I think that it works well in this picture.

        I think that this picture is an accurate representation of framing. The playground apparatus frames the tree and the rock. I think the tilted angle that the picture was taken from adds to the effectiveness of the photo- it gives it more visual appeals.

"Balance"

        I think that this picture displays balance. The trees in the foreground and background have equal weight in the photo in terms of color and the amount of space that they take up.

        The flowers in this picture hold equal weight in terms of color and the amount of space they take up, creating balance. I also feel that the high lighting levels worked really well in this photo, accenting the colorful fllowers.

        I think that this picture is effective because it uses several compositional techniques: balance- the trees and building on either sides are balanced well, rule of thirds- shown by the bushes, and leading the eye- the path leading to the building.

        I think that this photo works well because the pine cone in the foreground balances with the trees in the background. The photo also appears visually capturing due to only the front branch and pine cone being in focus while the rest of the photo is out of focus.

      I think that this photo is effective due to its use of the rule of thirds (the water), and the high levels of lighting, as well as the fact that the composition is balanced.
