The technical aspects used in this photo is shallow depth of field, contrast, and black and white. This photo uses shallow depth of field because only one leaf is in focus and the background is blurred. It shows high contrast because it goes from white to black without any gray in between. I also edited this photo to be black and white instead of leaving it in color. Artistically this photo has an interesting point of view. It was taken from an above point of view. |
Photo Three
The compositional elements that this photo presents is leading lines, point of view, and texture. It uses leading lines by all the lines leading you around the mushroom. The point of view is interesting because its from a birds eye view but its of the underneath of the mushroom. The underneath of the top of the mushroom represents texture because soft it would feel. The technical aspects used in this photo is lighting and shallow depth of field. The lighting in this photo is natural light because it was taken outside. I used shallow depth of field because really close up to the mushroom so it was the only thing in focus. Artistically this photo has an interesting point of view and an unexpected composition. It has an interesting point of view because you wouldn't normally take a picture of the underside of a mushroom from above. This photo has an unexpected composition because its not something you would expect to take a picture of. |
