Copy stand picture

Picture outside in low light

Hey everyone today I'm going to talk about my chess piece. In this post I'm going to talk about what I did in the drawing. To upload this picture to the PC I used three techniques scanning, copy stand and taking the picture outside in low light. I found that the best way to take the picture was out side in low light, but you can only use this method on a sunny or dry day because if the ground is wet it will destroy your picture. The copy stand can cause your picture to look shiny. Finally scanning does not always get the full picture sometimes you are missing edges.


When I was drawing my chess piece I tried to create movement by making my chess piece look like it was falling and being caught by the shadows. I created a 3D looking chess piece by blending the shadows around the chess piece. Using gradation I warp my shadow around the concave. I used thick and thin lines I made it so all the lines lead you to one point the chess piece/focal point. This created movement towards the focal point. In conclusion I created a visually interesting picture drawing the persons eye to the chess piece and leave people thinking about what the Black Shadows are\

Its beautiful

I took this picture 2 years at Niagara Falls.

I like this picture because of the repetition in the white lines. It also has a weird looking pattern. Another thing I liked was the bright neon colours it real draws the eye in. I would say the focal point is the thick red line and if you look at it the lines look like abstract faces. I really cant describe the other reason why I love this picture it just really grabs my imagination.

My picture looks awesome because I used leading lines and framing. The leading lines was shown by the faint blue line down the middle leading to my focal point. My focal point was the person                  ( http://nikesonmyfeetcyberarts.blogspot.ca/ ) . I also created depth by creating blur around the person/focal point. It also looks like you are looking down a tunnel. I framed my picture by putting the top half of my focal point in the goal post box. I cant really explain why I really like the picture but it really captures my mind and imagination.

Rule of thirds

RULE OF THIRDS

Rule of thirds is used to compile the plain of the photo. The rule of thirds is used by most if not all photographers. The rule of thirds divides photo into thirds and there are four intersecting points on the grid. These points are most likely to be the focal points or where the eye is drawn to in the photo. Photographers will have this rule in mind when taking the photos to create a in-depth image.
