Rhythm

This capturing picture taken by Ursula Abresch demonstrates a wonderful composition known as rhythm. As you can see the droplets of water really emphasise the uniqueness and focus of this image giving it a really interesting depth and rhythm. Personally, i find the different shades of black and white used in the droplets the most effective and demonstrates a great example of rhythm.

Closed Format Cropping

Even though it is given who the capturer of this picture was (i think it is slightly embedded in the bottom left hand corner of the image) i see a powerful portrayal of the "closed format cropping" phtography genre in this image. It's as if the filter for this image is a sepia mixed with black and white. As you can identify, the photographer has cropped this image to the top left hand corner of the flower which gives you a more in depth meaning to it. It also gives the picture more detail and always makes the viewer take a second look.

Rule of Thirds

This image taken by Joseph Demko, is an equisit example of the "Rule of Thirds" photography composition. As you can see, the puppy dog is located exactly it the intersection oth the left hand sid of the thirds. I also identify this image as a successful one because Joseph has really captured the light and used it to his advantage like with this picture here:
As you can see animal images are extremely effective especially in my opinion and Joseph has clearly partrayed a strong message through them, belief.

Vertical Line

Despite this picture not stating its capturer, I see great potential in the Vertical Line composition of this image. When using vertical lines in photography, they provide the viewer with a certain sense of dominance and supremacy. It draws your eyes to the top edge of the photo almost instantaneously. This photo puts a lot of things in perspective and shows us that there is a greater meaning to this image than just trees.

Edge of Frame

This image taken by Jason Collin is a terrific example of an Edge fo Frame photograph. As you can see this is a significantly effective picture because you are just drwn to the edge of the frame where the main focus of the bird is. The lighting really compliments and brings out the true nature of this majestic animal.

Central Placement

 This image taken by Adam Paine is a representation of central placement as the idividual holding the surf board is located in the centre. As you can see this photo is very visually appealing as the light in the background really comes through and emphasises the morning effect. The main reason as to why this picture best represents central placement is that the main focus of this image is located dead centre.
