Practicing Photography.

Last week in Computer and Technology class, my class learned about some of the elements of photography. Our assignment was to take pictures that demonstrate three of the elements that we learned about. I took three pictures that demonstrate a picture in motion, simplicity, and framing. 




The picture to the left demonstrates a picture in motion. The water falling under the dolphins and how the bodies of the dolphins are curved shows that the dolphins are in the middle of jumping out of the water beneath them.



The picture to the right demonstrates simplicity. If you make sure that the main element is in the center of the picture that you are taking it helps draw the attention of the person looking at your picture. In my picture, I made sure that the goat's head was in the center of the picture because it's the main element and the goat eating the carrot draws attention.


The last picture that I took to demonstrate framing is the picture to the left. The large door frame acts as a frame to the pictures that are hanging on the wall. Framing causes the person looking at the picture to look through the frame where the main element of the picture is usually located.
