Elements and principles of Photography

Leading Lines- refers to a composition technique whereby the viewer's eye is attracted to lines that lead directly to the principle subject in the images.

Vertical Lines- a line perpendicular to a surface or to another line.

Horizontal Lines- There’s something about a horizontal line in an image that conveys a message of ‘stability’ or even ‘rest’. 

Diagonal Lines- a diagonal is a line segment joining any two non-consecutive vertices. 

Curved Lines- a curve is a part of a curve that is bounded by two distinct end points and contains every point on the curve between its end points. 

Symmetrical Balance- One side balances or mirrors the other separated by a vertical line.

Asymmeritcal Balance- It is normally off-center or created with an odd or mismatched number of disparate elements.

Unity- Unity occurs when all of the elements of a piece combine to make a balanced, harmonious, complete whole. 

Variety- Variety means "to change the character" of an element, to make it different.

Movement/Ryhthem- Movement adds excitement to your work by showing action and directing the viewers eye throughout the picture plane.

Rhythm is a type of movement in drawing and painting. It is seen in repeating of shapes and colors. 

Emphasis- Emphasis is defined as an area or object within the artwork that draws attention and becomes a focal point. 

Proportion/scale- Scale refers to the size of an object (a whole) in relationship to another object (another whole). Proportion refers to the relative size of parts of a whole (elements within an object).

Repetition/Pattern- Repeating visual elements such as line, color, shape, texture, value or image tends to unify the total effect of a work of art as well as create rhythm.Pattern is a combination of elements or shapes repeated in a recurring and regular arrangement. 

Birds Eye View- a general view from above, or as if from above.

Worms Eye View- A view as if seen from below.

Horizon Line- horizon is defined as the horizontal line through P. The point P is the vanishing point of lines perpendicular to the picture.

1. Rule of Thirds- The rule of thirds is a powerful compositional technique for making photos more interesting and dynamic. 
   

   

   Framing-Framing, especially in the photographic arts, is primarily concerned with the position and perspective of the viewer.
   

   

   Simplicity- An example of simplicity; focus is on the flowers, without any background clutter.
   

   

   
   

   Texture-

   the feel, appearance, or consistency of a surface or a substance.

What is Composition

1)What is Composition?
Composition is the arrangement of visual elements within the frame of the photograph.
2)Why is it important to understand and untilize composition in photography?
The most important element in photography are line, texture, shape, light,motion and perspective. So you can emphasize the true meaning of photos.

An artisic interiptaion of a person or event in the photo.
Photography is the art of discovery

Understanding ISO

Low ISO                                          

ISO-100
Aperture-f/4.0
Shutter Speed-1/25

High ISO
ISO-6400                          

Aperture-f/4.0
Shutter Speed-1/500














1) ISO is how much light comes through.
2) ISO works technically because it will do it by itself and fix the lighting so it looks better and visually is so the picture itself looks good.
3) The relationship to the exposure triangle is how the aperture and the shutter speed work together.

Understanding White Balance

Auto

Daylight

Shady

Cloudy

Tungsten

Fluorescent

1) White balance is a setting where you can change the settings of where you are and how you wanna take the picture so its not a bad picture.

2)It is important because it makes the color in the picture balanced.
