Design+Principles

= = =__ Design Principles-by Rebecka Newlove __=

 Depth

 *  Dimension is taken through the photo, downward from an upper surface, upward from a downward surface, horizontally, etc.
 *  Creates a sense of deepness.

 // Into The Unknown //
 * This picture creates a sense of curiosity
 * Composed of only black and white
 * Your eye is drawn to the end of the path, where the light is coming forward through the picture.
 * The background is composed of nature ; trees, leaves and bushes
 * The trees, gravel, and grass create texture
 * This is a photo about a pathway leading to unknown. The setting seems like a quiet place, not very inhabited by people, foresty. Seems like an old fashioned picture.

 Framing

 *  Draws attention to the center, or subject of the photo using shapes, outlines, etc

// Dancing Sunbeams //


 * Your sight follows the sunbeams into the middle of the photo which is the tree.
 * The photo gives off a warm feeling
 * Composed of lines
 * You can see the texture of the moss on the branches, and the twigs on the ground.
 * I think this photo is about a walk in the forest on a sunny morning.

 ﻿Element Relatio﻿nship

 *  When two seperate things come together to become one subject.
 *  The two objects can not be divided into two different photos, it wouldn't work.

//Lions Playing//

It's hard to tell where the light is coming into the photo, but I think it's coming from the left side.
 * The two lion cubs are together the subject of the photo.
 * It's pretty simple, so there isn't a distraction from the lion cubs
 * This picture reminds me of innocence and it makes me happy because it's about babies playing.
 * The texture is noticed in the fur of the cubs, the rough looking wall, and the grass.

 ﻿Triangles
 // Between the Sheets //
 *  Keeps your eye moving from one point of the picture to another
 *  Makes the photo more interesting


 * The triangles in this photo keep the viewer captivated
 * Composed of only blue and white, keep it simple but pretty
 * Has a balanced feel to it, as though everything is where it's supposed to be
 * Makes the viewer feel calm but not bored
 * The focus of the photo is either the water falling from the sheet, or the woman.
 * The textures in this photo are either very soft or very smooth.

Simple and Single Point

 * Creates a big impact because your eye is drawn directly to the subject
 * <span style="color: #000080; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif;">Plain, simple background
 * <span style="color: #000080; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif;">No distractions from the subject

<span style="color: #000080; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif;"> // A Slow Decent //


 * This picture reminds me of spring, which gives off a warm feeling and relaxation
 * Composed of bright colours, only with blue and green
 * The focus of the photo is the tree, and since its off to the side of the picture it looks better than it would if it was in the middle
 * The background is the sky which is very blue and clear
 * The grass compared to the sky demonstrates a difference in texture

<span style="color: #800080; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif;">﻿Diagonals
// Swings //
 * <span style="color: #800080; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif;">Draws the viewer's eye in and out of the photo
 * <span style="color: #800080; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif;">Creates interest
 * <span style="color: #800080; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif;">Shows motion
 * This photo gives off a sense of fun and adventure
 * Composed of only black and white
 * Very interesting angle, shows a lot of diagonals
 * Light coming in from the left
 * Background composed of clouds with a nicely detailed texture
 * The top of the ride, where the swings are coming from, is the focus of the photo

<span style="color: #cd0404; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif;">﻿﻿Balance
<span style="color: #cd0404; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif;">
 * <span style="color: #cd0404; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif;">Everything seems like it's where it's supposed to go
 * <span style="color: #cd0404; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif;">Gives a sense of organization
 * <span style="color: #cd0404; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif;">Balanced with placement of shapes, people, other objects etc.

// Larry Victor McClain //
 * This is a happy picture about a little kid who lived in a small town
 * Balanced with the use of black and white, the buildings on either side of the subject, and the reflection of the subject on top and bottom
 * The lighting is coming up from the top of the photo
 * The texture of the water next to the gravel looks nice
 * The little boy is the subject of the photo
