In this lesson we went out taking landscape photos using different techniques.These techniques were framing, rule of thirds, leading lines and converging lines.Leading lines is a line in the photo which draws our attention to the main subject.Framing is a natural frame around the subject.Converging lines is like leading lines but have parallel lines leading towards subject.Rule of thirds is a grid where the main focus lays on one of the lines.For each I took a few photos.I found that leading lines was easier to do then the others as there were many opportunities to take a photo as I was walking around.This shoot went well as I created two successful images I will sew into.In my group we first went to the Lincolnshire life museum as we found the gate was a good photo to create a framing photo.Afterwards we went to the back entrance of the castle where we took some framing and converging lines photos.Going down steep hill I also took converging lines but also leading lines.On the way to the museum there was a path where a man walking his dog.He was towards the end of the path so I captured that photo a the perfect time as the path leads our attention to him.If I was to do this shoot again I would try to take some of my photos from different angles to add interest.When I had finished the shoot I created a contact sheet and then the next lesson printed two A4 prints. This is how they turned out:
