Balance Project

For this I used photoshop I took pictures of a spoon and a butterknife and took a picture of a sink drain, took the picutres into photoshop and used the quick selection tool to make them white and added them to the black background. I layed out the image to also create a focal point onto the drain. I added in the white lines to make it look like the spoons and the knives are in the sink. Then I inverted the image to get the opposite. I hope that I understood the project and did this right!

 

 

Scale and Proportion

Here is my image I created for this weeks assignment. I had a lot of fun creating it, and think it shows scale and proportion very well, very histarically!  =P
I enlarged the baseball, and the players hands to accomodate the big bat I put in. =)

Emphasis and Focal Point assignment

I made 3 out of the 5 focal point examples, I will label them. I read the homework wrong and thought we were supposed to make them. But I will post this because I think they are good examples that represent the 3 focal points that I made them for very well.

Contrast

I think that this represents focal point by contrast pretty well, with the bright white number 31 sticking out on the picture.

Isolation

 

I think that this represents emphasis by Isolation Focal point fairly well like  "Little Boy Begging" in our text book. With the light coming down and focusing on the block.

This is the last one I made. This one I think shows emphasis by placement much like image A in our book. The arrows and boxes around the focal point direct your eyes to the focal point.

This next one I found online by Google searching. It shows emphasis from one element very nicely I think. This one shows focal point by one element by having the one tomato brighter and more dominant.

This next image is absence of a focal point and I think it does it very well! Clearly has no one particular focal point and is a very interesting peice to boot!
