Assignment 2: Elements of Design, Several points in a deliberate shape

The idea behind this assignment is to incorporate the insights you have learned so far on the course into a set of photographs directed towards one type of subject. You should produce at least 10 Photographs, all of a similar subject, which between them will show the following effects:

  • Single point dominating the composition
  • Two points
  • Several points in a deliberate shape
  • A combination of vertical and horizontal lines
  • Diagonals
  • Distinct, even if irregular shapes
  • At least two kinds of implied triangle
  • Rhythm
  • Pattern

Several points in a deliberate shape

I found this subject quite difficult to select an image for what I have gone for hopefully demonstrates points with shapes.
 
This picture was taken on a trip to Whitby, North Yorkshire, the boat was returning from a fishing trip with calm seas. I thought it was a good opportunity to have a picture with a main focus point with additional points. 
I have chosen this photograph to demonstrate "several points in a deliberate shape" as I believe that with the boat as one of the points and the two lighthouses that can be seen as implied triangles and also demonstrate the relationship between points.
