Vantage Point

The Frame

The Thing Itself

Time

Detail

In the reading The Photographer's Eye, John talks about the five elements of photography. I picked a photograph to represent each of these elements although I feel like some of that have more than one of the elements featured in the photo. For example, the photo I picked for "detail" is the one of the orange flower ball but I feel like that also could be the frame itself. The other picture involving flowers that I used for vantage point had elements of detail in it as well such as the outline of each petal and leaf. The photo of Autzen could also be used for time because that is how I was able to capture such a beautiful sky behind the building. Although John talks about all of these five elements of photography separately I think it is all of these elements coming together that helps create a good photo even if only one is the central point of the photo.
