Image Eight

Before

After

Representation of relationships

The relationship this image portrays would be the relationship between nature and man, this is the relationship shown as the concrete circle is a man made object which is made to benefit mankind only, the plant growing to the side of this shows that nature tries to grow everywhere, no matter if you try and stop if growing it will grow in places deemed impossible to grow because nature adapts to survive.

Formal Elements

The formal elements used in this image are ones such as line, the lines used in this image would be the ones going round the circle, the wall and where the sky is. Another element used in this image would be shape, this is because of the main subject standing out and being multiple shapes. Texture is also used in this image as there is texture visible on the subject in focus. Finally colour is a big part, this is due to the amount of colours used, fro example though there is not a lot of purple you can still clearly see it, brown is also a big part as most of the image is a brown cream colour, the blue sky is vibrant so sticks out in this image.

Compositional Elements

There are multiple compositional elements in this image, for example there is a leading line in this image which is positioned on the wall, though the leading line is not on the ground I feel it is still a leading line. Another one would be rule of thirds to some degree, I think this because I feel as though the plant is on the left line of the rule. The depth of field in this image would be a shallow depth as not everything in the image is in focus.

Photoshop Process

The raw file editor process was pretty straight forward I went onto effects and then down to post crop vignetting. I moved the bars as the image bellow shows to get the dark effect round the edges.

Critique

Though this image is one of my own I feel the shoot for this particular one could of gone better, I took multiple images of this one place but I would have preferred it to show more of the road the wall this was on.
