Composition and Framing

In this task I had to take four photographs that made use of several composition techniques but also represented a theme. my theme was Alone-ness and Togetherness.

Here is my first set

I am happy with most of these pictures although they do not employ many composition techniques. my favorite of the fur pictures would be the bottom right picture as it makes use of space to get across the theme of alone-ness.








To improve upon the set of pictures that I had collected, I researched more composition techniques that I could use and then set out to collect more pictures to improve my overall collection.

                                                                Here is my second set

I have replaced only one of my pictures as the new one makes use of perspective to give the new photograph a different feel which could help the representation of togetherness.









During the course of this task I learned about the different composition techniques that existed and how they could be used to represent a theme and create a feel for a photograph. I also learned about how these techniques are essential for making a picture visually interesting.

In this task I think that I did a good job when creating the feel of Alone-ness in photographs, I manage to employ a few techniques as well as properly representing my theme. my togetherness pictures did not go as well as I found it difficult to include technical skills as I was representing my theme. In my second collection I was able to include perspective although had trouble finding a second togetherness picture which employed any composition techniques.

To improve these I would attempt to use depth of field to highlight certain parts of the frame. or to create a feel of isolation.
