Juxtaposition

This is an example of juxtaposition photography.

Source

This is a photograph that in my opinion represents juxtapostion. This is not something you see everyday, and i happened to be snapping a picture at the right moment for this, while someone dropped an ice cube into the cup. I really like this picture just because the cup is vibrant, and is dead center. Also, you can see the water really clearly, and that adds alot.

Triangulation

This is an example of triangulation.

Source

This is my triangulation photograph. It is not focused on the triangle, but if you look, the first photo frame and the wall make a triangle. I liked this photograph because it was not focused just on a triangle.  Also, the color seems to get darker as it goes further on to the wall, and it just plain out makes the photo look cool!

Overlapping

This is an example of the overlapping technique.

This is the photograph i took to represent the overlapping technique. It shows a few towels laying on top of each other. I like the fact that the colors of the towels are random, and you can see the texture of them. I think this photo does a nice job of representing overlapping.

Breaking the Rules

This is an example of breaking the  rules of photography.

This is the photograph i took to represent breaking the rules. I broke the rules in the photograph because its completely centered, and the lighting is really bright. I also didnt include the whole flower pot or entire flower in the picture, yet its not filling the frame.

Arrangement

This is an example photograph of the arrangement technique.

Source

This is the photograph i shot for arrangement. It was a simple photograph of red apples arranged in a fruit basket on my counter. I edited the photograph to look like they were green apples. It gives the photograph a mysterious look, because the apples are shaped like red ones, not rounded like every other green apple.
