Close-Ups

In this photo the flower is to the right of the photo. This makes it composed very well. There are lots of textures and colours in this photo; the bright colours of the flower, the dark colours of the surrounding area, and the soft look of the flower, the rough twigs and bark. The area surrounding the flower also begins to blur out of focus as you go further back, which I think is a nice effect.

In this photo the flower is again the main focus, set this time in the left of the image instead of the right. This photo contains three prominent colours; purple, brown and green. There are also varying textures; rough, soft, the fraying edges of the flower petals and the spiky bramble. Almost the entire background of this photo is blurred, making the flower stand out a lot.

I aimed to make the moss the main focus of this image, and I set it in the left of the photo. There aren't many colours, but even so the green moss stands out against the brown bench. There's also only two textures; rough, and soft and spongey. I think that there are some lines in this photo, as the cracked areas of the bench tend to have horizontal lines.

Because the school is quite drab and doesn't contain many colours, I used my watch to make a more colourful photo. In this photo, I think the red areas stand out the most against the green/blue. Although the watch isn't the most focused part of the image, it's the part that the eye is immediately drawn to. There's also lots of patterns in this photo, thanks to the watch and the shapes of the ivy leaves. The tribal face design is quite distinctive and contains some interesting patterns.

This photo focuses completely on lines. Other than that there aren't many textures, colours or patterns as the path is quite dreary and is made of one material. The lines in this photo help to add perspective as they draw narrower towards the top of the photo. This photo doesn't follow the rule of thirds, as there is no main subject and the image is purely about lines.

This photo contains some interesting textures within the mud that the twigs, leaves and footprint have made. There aren't many colours but the red and white card stand out against the dark mud. The card is intended to be the main focus, and was set in the top right of the photo to help follow the rule of thirds. The diamond pattern on the cards also slightly contributes to adding a pattern to the image.
