Elements and Principles of Photography


  1. Leading Lines- leading lines are lines in a photograph that leads your eyes to a point or out of the picture.  The lines in this picture lead your eye to the windmill.
  2. Vertical Lines- vertical lines in a photograph are used to convey power and strength. They are lines that run north to south in the photograph which makes your eyes go to the top of the picture.
  3. Horizontal Lines- horizontal lines in photographs are used to show peacefulness and quiet and run east to west in the photograph. The bars run east to west which your eye follows.
  4. Diagonal Lines- they are used to show movement and action and has a feeling of dynamic action. They run at a slant. 
  5. Curved Lines- they add grace and soften the photo and suggest a journey. The curved lines in this photograph create a journey that leads to the person. 
  6. Symmetrical Balance- a symmetrical photograph is equal and balanced and the two sides mirror each other. The chairs are the same on both sides and they mirror each other.
  7. Asymmetrical Balance- it is the opposite of symmetrical balance, the picture is unbalanced, there is more on one side than the other, they are unequal. There are more teacups on one side than there are on the other.
  8. Unity- unity is having a whole and balanced photograph that has different elements that work together.  
  9. Variety- there is a combination of different things in the photograph. There are different fruits of different shapes, sizes and color which creates variety.
  10. Movement/Rhythm- movement is the path that the picture goes in the the focal point, and rhythm is regularly occurring elements that flow together. In this picture the path is in circles due to the lights.
  11. Emphasis- emphasis is the point your eye first goes to in a photo and stands out against the rest of the photograph. Everything in the picture is black and white and the background is blurred, and the ball is in color and in focus which emphasizes it.
  12. Proportion/Scale- the size and scale of objects in a photograph and the relationship of it to the other parts. The person's hand appears to be much larger than the Eiffel Tower.
  13. Repetition/Pattern- repeating visual elements to unify the picture. The pattern of the woven rope repeats.
  14. Bird's Eye View- the photograph is a view from above, as if the viewer was a bird in the sky. This picture of a cat is taken from above, where a bird would be.
  15. Worm's Eye View- the opposite of bird's eye view, the picture appears to be looking up from the ground, the point of view of a worm. This picture of a tree is taken from below, where a worm would be.
  16. Horizon Line- the horizon line divides the photo from east to west and is not usually placed directly in the center.  The line where the water and land meet creates a division in the photo.
  17. Rule of Thirds- a rule that is used by breaking the image down into a grid of 9 equal squares and the best place for focal points is the intersections of these imaginary lines. In this picture, the sky is in one part, and the water is in the other two, and the sailboat is on an intersection.
  18. Framing- emphasizing a part of the picture by blocking out the other parts with something in the photograph. The hand blocks out the rest of the scene so you only see the sun, making it the focal point.
  19. Simplicity- keeping everything in the object simple and neutral so they do not draw as much attention. The background is just black so there is no distraction and there is only one object in it.
  20. Texture- texture makes the objects in the image appear to feel a type of way and provides interest in the picture. You can see that the elephant's skin is rough.
