IMA Photos

      This photo was taken at the Indiana Museum of Art. It is at the side of the building, at the start of the gardens. It was shot at about 12:30 P.M.. This photo incorporates the techniques of  'Leading Lines' and 'Repetition.'
      The windows and path of rocks demonstrate 'Leading Lines' as they lead the viewer from the beginning of the picture, to the very end. However, the windows and rocks also demonstrate 'Repetition.' The windows and rocks all "repete" themselves, with their symmetry and adjacency. I love the reflections shown in the windows.          Probably my favorite thing about this photo is how much the viewer will absorb from it. There are the fall colors, the reflections in the windows, and of  course the Leading Lines and Repetition; all of them are taken in the viewer at once. This photo came out better than expected; I had no idea how much the reflections would add to it.
      


This photo was shot using the 'Leading Lines' technique. The stone path leads the viewer through the picture.
I think that the nature surrounding the path seems to draw more attention to it. There are many different angles that the steps of the path can be seen on in this picture, I think that it almost incorporates length, width, and depth to the photo.



This photo incorporates both 'Leading Lines' and 'Repetition.' The angle from which the structure is shot from seems to lead the viewer through the picture, from beginning to end, thus creating Leading Lines. Repetition is used with the symmetric arches following a straight path. Nearly all of the photo is the same darkness; I think this definitely improves its appearance.
