Composition


This photo I took of the center of a tulip displays radial symmetry. The focus of the picture is on the middle of the flower, then the pedals come out and around it in a circular pattern,  which creates the radial symmetry.


I randomly snapped this action shot while at the driving range with my boyfriend, and realized that it displayed great depth. Since the golf club was closer to the camera, it appears to be larger than normal. However, this shows the depth of field, since you can feel that the golfer is clearly in front of the club. 



Sometimes, self-timer can work wonders! Such as the case with this picture, which displays asymmetrical balance. The bodies in the picture, although off to the far left, are balanced out by the mountain on the right side. The people and the mountain appear to be of equal visual weight because of the asymmetry. This picture also uses the rule of thirds, but putting the people off to the far left side, but it still feels natural.
