Our first assignment was to take 11 pictures, displaying each of the 11 given elements of composition: Rule of thirds, symmetry, pattern, lines, texture, depth of field, perspective, framing, space, balance, and color. It was also an experience to help familiarize us with using the camera and uploading pictures, as well as creating our blogs. Over the course of this assignment I learned how to work with the camera and upload pictures through a camera. I also learned about the elements of composition and it was really fun to walk around the school purposefully looking for the elements. RULE OF THIRDS: I positioned the camera so that the two pillars were in line with the 1/3rd lines of the grid. SYMMETRY: I tried to create asymmetry here through the juxtaposition of the colorful paint-splattered floor next to the neat tiles. PATTERN: A pattern of hexagons. LINES: Diagonal lines of a grate. TEXTURE: I tried to get the light to reflect off the diamonds in order to capture an interesting texture. DEPTH OF FIELD: I used a wide angle shot to capture the depth of the hallway. PERSPECTIVE: I liked the way the rail looked when I moved the camera close to it. The way the lines are aligned draws the viewer's eye from right to left and creates a unique perspective. FRAMING: The walls surrounding the alcove create a boundary around the posters and fountain. SPACE: The white ceiling to the left of the wall creates the feeling of unused space by the wall, and draws the eye from left to right. BALANCE: There is a shoe on each side of the image, creating harmony between both elements. COLOR: I liked all the different colors of the painted rocks compared to the dull gray of the others.
