Over the recent weeks, we were allowed to adventure over to our nearby zoo to take photos of different animals and objects. Over the course of the trip, I have chosen five of my best photos to display on this blog.
This is a texture taken of a leaf. I was able to get extremely close up when taking the photo, allowing for remarkable detail.
This photo of a log was specifically taken to display the photographic technique of visual movement through leading lines. In this case, the log is the leading line.
This photo was taken to give an interesting perspective of the trees. The use of the sun makes a contrast between the light and shadow, and the view looking up makes the arrangement of the trees look almost like a pattern.
For those unsure, that's a goose. I was able to catch it at a moment of action to make the composition more interesting for viewers. I cropped it so the goose wasn't in the very center and instead a bit off-center to make the picture more pleasing for the viewer.
The top burrito of the photos I took, this picture is of a skull with the sun behind it. The lighting makes the composition seem more dramatic, and it is balanced symmetrically.
