Composition and Pattern

It’s a sunny day for some shadow photographing. I captured some shadow.

Before all the shooting, check white balance. I used a white A4 paper and took a photo of it. The image of the paper then was used for custom white balance.

The first photo is an easy weatherboard wall shadow. You can find these all around NZ. The classic diagonal composition makes it looks less boring.

Wall Pattern

Second photo is an outside table and its shadow on the wall. This time, there are more lines and they are no longer in parallel. This photo is kind broken the 1/3 composition rule. The separation is right in the middle. The thinking was that I want it to be balanced between dark shadow and bright desk. It also tells what object that shadow is from.

Table Shadow

The object I am capturing is getting larger and lager. Here is the shadow from fence. Same as the first photo, it was composited in the diagonal way. More to that, this time I added 3rd dimension to it, the depth. The fence is way too colorful to make viewer to just look at the composition, therefore I changed it to black and white.

To upload the last photo is to proof I have done my laundry while I were taking photos. And it is diagonal too.
