Simplicity, The Rule of Thirds, Lines, Balance, Framing, and Avoiding Mergers

simplicity
 This photo is an example of simplicity because the background is simple. The Background is just lines of the building and there are no colors or sky or other buildings to distract your eye away from the falling man.






rule of thirds
This photo is an example of rule of thirds because the twin tower on fire is in the upper right corner of the photo. Neither of the buildings are exactly in the center so it makes the photo more appealing.





lines

This photo is an example of lines because there are a lot of lines leading your eye to the subject, the firefighters. there are lines on the fence and the building and the road that are diagonal and make the photo more appealing and dynamic.






balance
Many men hugged on a day when over 400 emergency workers were killed.
This photo shows balance because there are two people on either side of the photo. The people on the photo balance each other out. Also two of the men are warring dark blue shirt on either side of the photo and that also balances out the picture.





framing
This photo is framed by the bridge on the top and right and the water on the bottom. The smoke coming from the buildings also frames the top of the photo. When the bridge frames the photo it gives a sense of depth an layers to the photo.




avoiding mergers
This is an example of mergers because the people are cut off. All the people on the right side are cut off by the border.
