Assignment 2: Elements of Design, Diagonals

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

Diagonals

This shot for me conveys diagonal lines perfectly. The road leads me into the picture by means of the converging diagonals. The shot was taken on the Island of Lindasfarne in Northumberland.
