Photography

This white daisy shows, perhaps, the lines principle in the petals. It’s almost looks the picture of perfection, and the shades of light and dark of the background pushes attention to the flower..

The Jade plant shown demonstrates the off-centre rule. The photo has a nice appearance due to the contrast between the vibrant green and white/pink of the flowers.

This camellia demonstrates the off-centre rule. It shows one of the flowers close up and another out of focus behind. The photo primarily shows green and bright pink and the use of these make it attractive, with the blemish on the leaf balancing the photo.

This photograph displays yet another camellia. It displays the off-centre rule, as well as the lines principle through the lines pointing towards it from the leaves. It has a very ‘fresh-out-of- the-rain’ look.

These rhododendron possibly show the lines principle through the pinks and whites. The different tints give it a very delicate feel.

This photo shows several Swan River Myrtles, bright and alive, and in contrast, a few shrivelled blooms. The lines principle appears in this.

The Swan River Myrtle in this demonstrate the lines principle and possibly the off-centre rule as well. The vibrant pink coupled with the many yellow-tipped stamen give the shot a wild, party-like atmosphere.

This cream-coloured rose doesn’t really show any rule, but it’s a lovely flower, and fits well with the other floral shots. The leaves being in sharper focus lend the rose a soft, almost dreamy quality.

The leaves here make up the majority of this shot. It shows the lines principle, again, and the seemingly endless swirls on them give them a strangely coy look.

This picture’s main subject is a Banksia after flowering. It shows the lines principle through the spiky leaves and the entire photo looks rather harsh and wild.

The tiny mushroom in this photo is surrounded by blades of grass, which demonstrate the lines principle.

This photo of a bee and surrounding environment demonstrates the off-centre rule. The direct gaze of the insect draws in the viewer and the shades of brown of the bark creates a soothing feel. Being slightly out of focus, the photo looks rather surreal.

This photo is of sunlight filtering through a layer of tree leaves. It kind of shows the lines principle, through the branches and light rays, and the off-centre rule. It has a very calm, ‘at one with nature’ feel.

Taken in Queen’s Park, this scenery shot shows an area of the park, especially the pond and a tree, which looks somewhat like a Weeping Willow. It displays the off-centre rule.
