Rule of Thirds:
This picture follows the rule of thirds really well. The buliding, the focal point of the picture, is offcenter, allowing the other buildings and landscape to be seen. It also gives the picture more dimension and a sense of foreground and background.
Depth of Field:
Depth of Field is what allows you to focus or fixate your eyes on something in the picture. In this picture, my eyes immediately gravitated toward the car in the bottom-left corner. However, when you look at the picture longer, you can see everything going on in the background--the woman crossing the street, the car driving by, cars parked along the side of the road. Depth of Field allows you to see the depth of the picture.
Eyes, Color, Fill the Frame:
This picture is bright and vibrant and takes up the whole frame. It's really close-up and part of the flower is even cut-off. To me, the 'eye' of this picture would be the center of the sunflower, because that is what my eyes were automatically drawn to.
Interesting use of Light:
I think this picture uses light in a really interesting way. To take a picture like this, you have to use a longer shutter speed; this one was shot with a 30 second shutter speed.
Shooting at Eye-Level:
This picture of a little girl was shot at her eye-level, which probably looks better than the photographer taking it from his or her eye-level.
Macro Photography:
This picture was taken so close-up, that you can see every detail on the flower. My favorite part is the drops of water because makes the flower more interesting. This website has really good examples of macro photography.
Another example:
This is a picture I took a long time ago and for some reason I like it. I don't know why and I don't know if it fits any of these techniques but I just like the way it looks. I think I like how it was taken from up higher so you can see what is happening below and what is at eye-level.
