I've always dreamed about traveling, so I searched some of the most famous sites in the world to find examples of photography concepts. Enjoy these pictures as you take a virtual trip around the world!
This photo of a window from Notre Dame is an example of
filling the frame, a fancy way of saying "up close."
You get a completely different view, also known as a
different angle, when looking at the Golden Gate bridge from the top of one of the towers.
The tiers of the Parthenon are a perfect example of
vertical line photography, capturing the height of the building.
This street in Italy is an example of
converging lines, because the tall buildings frame the road, making it seem like it goes on forever.
Big Ben stands tall and proud in this rule of thirds photo, meaning that if the picture were to be split in thirds, the focus would be on one of the sides.
The names along the Vietnam War memorial are an example of
horizontal photography.
These bright lights found on multiple billboards in Times Square are an example of
diagonal photography.
Finally, this California Redwood tree is
framing the hippie van.
