One Photo Composition Rule

           In this photo I used "Simplifying The Scene"because here I cropped it so the everyone is in centre and it makes the photo much simpler than having everyone spread out and draws attention to only the people in the picture not the background. This is why I chose this composition rule to use with the photo that i took.

My First Photo Outing - Principles of Design

Principles of Design

I chose this picture because at the top it's dark and as it goes down it becomes brighter. I think this meets the principle of design "Unity" because the stairs are tightly together.

I chose this picture because it's almost completely dark and you can still see light even though it's black and white. This shows "Unity" because all these tables are in units together.
