This week I took three photos supposed to exhibit the compostional elements in the best way I could. All were taken at my house. This one in particular is of a lamp on my bedside in my room. The photo was captured in such a way as to blur the two "poles" closest to the viewers sight. I purposfuly took this photo right in front of the first "pole" to give the impression of a winding figure. While it does wind a bit, the pattern is more controlled then the viewer might percieve it to be. This photo was taken in worms eye view and also utalizes the leading line technique, providing two compositional elements. I edited the photo to bring out the black in the lamp more and I also sharpened the center. My photo on the bottom I like the most. It is of a can of Axe being sprayed. I think I did a good job of capturing the motion of the mist and although "stop motion" isnt composition the photo was shot to the best of my ability in the third. The point where the spray is initialy leaving the can is in the bottom left quadrant. The photo was originaly very dark apart from the can and the mist however a bit of my bedroom in the background could be seen. I edited it all out to black though. It provides a nice canvas for the subject of the picture. My final photo utalizes framing. It is probably the weakest photo of the bunch and I didnt get the chance to do any editing to it. Though I worked to shoot the doors handle in the third.
