Line and Shape
What locations and subject matter did you choose to shoot for your photos?
I chose to photograph photograph 6, a gate in Fall River. This photo shows all of both line and shape that this gate has.
Describe the photos you took:
This design and pattern of this gate is going in all different directions.
What is the distance in the shot? (How close or far away are you from your subject?)
I was close to the right side of the gate in the picture and the left side faded away into the distance.
What was your point of view when you took the photos? (from above, below, straight on...)
This photo was taken straight on from the side.
Are your photographs horizontal or vertical?
This photo was taken horizontally.
Did you consider the rule of thirds to compose your shots? In which photos? Describe.
No. This is because the photo is proportionally even since the photo is taken pretty close up to the gate. Most of the picture is covered with metal lines that are all going in different directions.
Which one of of your photos is a dynamic composition that successfully leads the viewer’s eye through the work?
The photograph of the gate leads the viewer's eye through the work. This is because the eye goes up and down through the lines of the steel gate, criss-cross and up and down.

Describe your best photo: The fence at Universal Studios
What is the distance in the shot? (How close or far away are you from your subject?)
I am close to the left side of the fence shown in the photo, and the fence got blurrier and smaller towards the left side of the photo because of the way I had taken it.
What was your point of view when you took the photos? (from above, below, straight on...)
I took this picture at a side view, straight on.
Is your photograph horizontal or vertical?
This photograph is vertical.
Does this photo follow the rule of thirds? Why or why not? (Describe).
No. This is because I had taken the photo focusing more on the left side of the photo, where it is clear and close up.
Is this photo an example of pattern, texture and/or rhythm? Explain.
This photo is an example of pattern/repetition and a little bit of rhythm. This shows pattern and repetition because the fence follows a specific pattern of all squares. The wire of the fence is curly as well. It shows rhythm because the fence continues throughout the entire photo and gets smaller and blurrier as the viewer moves their eyes towards the right.

The photo of the stage may be overexposed. This is because the reflection on the black floor makes it look very lightly colored, and possibly too bright.
The area to the upper left is a little bit overexposed. This is because the lighting on the stage is reflecting.
The photo of the drink with condensation may be underexposed. I may have lowered the levels too much but this was because I wanted to show the details of the condensation more.
Most of the picture is too dark, but mostly towards the lower right where the barcode is, the details start to blur.
The image that is the best example of a properly exposed photo is the image of the cubbies in the preforming arts center. This is because it has a good contrast to show the reflection of light, and also gives a good sense of a three-dimensional photo. It really shows the distance at where the picture is taken.
