First Portrait assignment

Fourth Photo Assignment - Self Portrait

My third Photo Assignment - My third Rule

Third Photo - Rule 3. "Rule of Symmetry"

This photo represents the rule of symmetry. This can be seen because if one were to draw a vertical line through the picture, there would be two similar sides of the picture. This by definition is symmetry.


Rules:
1.) Rule of Perspective
2.) Rule of leading Lines
3.) Rule of symmetry

Second Photo Assignment - My second rule

Second Photo - Rule 2. "Leading Lines"

This image represents the rule of leading lines. As you can see there are lots of 'lines' in this image which give it a sense of depth. For example the railing which is parallel to the "warriors"

First Photo Assignment - My first Rule

First Photo - Rule 1. "Perspective"

The subject of this photo is seen imitating the form of the soccer player on the mural in the background. This represents the rule of perspective because your are looking at a fake image, which appears to come to life. This gives the viewer a sense a different viewpoint.
