Diagonal Rule
Branch of Wood |
Pine Needles of Pineyness |
Definitely Diagonal Leaf |
The branch of wood is diagonal and points to the spooky shadow side of the picture.
|
The Pinely Pine Needles are pricking off a branch which is diagonal. While the needles themselves create some distortion the important part of the picture, the branch is near the diagonal of the image.
|
The veins of these leaves branch out creating a flowing pattern along the diagonal of the image.

Framing Within The Frame
Focus of Out Block |
Tree Doorway Brick Pillar |
Birch Tree |
A block that encompasses the grass behind, yet remains out of focus due to the small field of view of the lens used at the time.
|
Pillars serves as an excellent doorway for framing, the tree behind is the focus point but the brick pillars surround the central point.
|
The birch tree I found in my neighborhood had two central trunks growing from the base, a great natural doorway. The road behind served as a good focus point for the image.
|
Golden Ratio
PinnicleTrees follow the golden ratio extremely well as they get more detailed and focus around certain points, like the knolls or stumps that serves as the most central point for the golden ratio.
|
PancakeThe title pancake serves to remind us where pancakes come from. Pancakes with their golden magnificent fluffiness would not be complete without maple syrup which comes from trees. This tree exemplifies the golden mean as it can be rectangles into one central focus point.
|
Doorknob for TreeThe stump one the side of this tree serves as the detailed corner of the golden ratio. Much like a Nautilus shell this tree flows to one central point.
|
Rule of Thirds
Telephone PoleThe telephone pole is off center, primarily in the three left quadrants of the image. This showcases the law of thirds.
|
Shrubified HillThe dead bush is centered in the bottom left side of the image, primarily in the bottom left corner and center left corner.
|
Pink Bucket With a RakeThe bucket with a rake is in the corner of the image, primarily in the bottom left corner. Due to its location the rule of thirds applies to this image.
