Assessment 1: Flowers 'After'

The composition rule, ‘rule of thirds’ was applied to the ‘after’ photograph. The vase of flowers is clear and distinguished from the ‘before’ photograph. This compositional rule applied is effective because it highlights the focus point (vase of flowers). In comparison to the ‘before’ photograph, the vase of flowers was not clear in the photograph as it portrayed a variety of focus points that made the image look busy. The ‘after’ photograph was subjected to the rule of thirds with the vase of flowers occupying the centre vertical third, and the egg occupying the leftmost third. The vase of flowers also occupies the centre of horizontal thirds. The intersection points unite the vase of flower creating a dominant focus.
