Color : The arrangement of colors in a photograph will help you create
the elusion of depth or a three dimensional composition. |

Horizontal lines imply, restfulness, tranquility, peacefulness. Low horizon lines emphasizes the sky, spaces, and distance. High horizons emphasize close proximity, and objects in he foreground. |

Patterns are made up of Lines and Shapes. In color photography, lines and shapes are often formed entirely by color. Patterns exist almost every where. You only have to open your heart and mind to discover them. Visual Awareness. |

Texture: We can translate a tactile effect onto a two-dimensional piece of film by creating implied texture, . Curling, dried mud, weathered wood, soft grasses, and sandstone all have textures that can be photographed. Texture is most commonly brought out with an oblique angle of light, (sidelight) which, in skimming the surface of the object, records the pockets of contrast, and picks up the hairs, cracks, curls, and ridges to create the textured effect. Soft, diffuse light also works well, if there is enough contrast to define the texture. |
