Contrast

This is what I chose for contrast because there is a lot of contrast in color and also with the water wood and grainy texture of the ground.

Texture

This photo is what I decided to use for my texture because of the texture of the water running off the wood and drizzling down to the ground.

Repetition

 This is my repetition picture all my ducks are in a row in the photo witch creates repetition and also its very cute the ducks just following one another. (:

 Angle of view

And last but most certainly not least I have these roses for my angle of view photo I got real low under the flowers and took this photo and tilted the camera a bit this is one of my favorite pictures because the flowers look so very big and important.

 Framing   

This photo is a good example of framing because the little bridge thing and the pillars at either end frame the water shooting out of the sprinkler thing I had a few different ones i could have used for framing but this was by far my favorite because it looks so natural.

 

 Depth

 I chose this one for depth it may not be the best example of depth but it was the best one i took that day it shows depth because there is the branch at the front leading you to look at the little bush then to the next tree and so on

  Scale

 

This one shows scale because you see the poster bored put up as such a huge drumstick but than we have the real thing right beside it and there is a big size difference. 

  

 Simplicity

 This one was what I picked for simplicity just a leaf coming off the side of a plant so sweet and simple the leaf is very small and in focus and everything around it is slightly blurred. 

Rule of thirds

for my rule of thirds photos there very similar to each other I did this one with the horizon on the lower part I left a lot more sky in it and my focus is on the left side where the little boat is cruising by 

for this one I have my horizon up in the top of the picture and a lot more of the water with the focus point on the right top corner .

and for this one its kind of like the first photo but the focus point is the little bird on the left.

Leading lines

In my first photo I really like how I'm using the leading lines and the rule of thirds at the same time if my focus was in the center this would not be nearly as strong of a photograph, I think if I would have made the horizon lower or higher it may have been better because its a little too centered but other than that i really like this picture.

In this one I really like how the railing leads your eye right to the bridge in the distance and also lines up with the fence there on the side i perhaps should have used a bit of the rule of thirds in the photo its very centered in this one.

And for this photo I really like how the lines are leading up to the opening at the top of the latter and also there is some repetition with the circles going up its a very neat angle.

white balance was cloudy 

In the first two I cant really see much of a difference at all, but in the third one I used the tungsten setting so it has a blue tinge too it, I think that the first three look so dark because I have light coming from behind it so its kind of shadowed I actually like the third one best out of the first three I think the blue is kinda cool. The last three I also dont see too much of a difference except the black part of the wall behind it I can see a slight difference in the color. I tried to use the rule of thirds mostly in the first three but also a bit in the last three. i like the last three better because i can see all the detail on the flowers that were drawn onto the mug and the actual daylight makes it better too.

 I noticed as the photos got lighter they got a bit more blurry, I chose the little car cup because Tim Dang suggested it to me and I thought it was cute when I got starred on the paint shop pro with the photo editing to make this collage it seemed a bit confusing but it ended up being pretty easy once I got started and once my computer actually started working for me, day 2 i got it done really fast. and i chose the other cup because I liked the design on it and thought it would be a good one for this specific project. I also like the transition from dark to light it looks pretty cool.

I think blogging is pretty confusing honestly, apparently I'm not very tech savvy. I think Ill like it more once im more familiar with the program because I'm very fond of taking photos and why not share them with everyone I'm not so good with the whole typing out an explanation for why I took the photo but you will just have to bare with me :D
