Compositional Technique

Picture 1: In this image there is the use of leading lines and filling the frame. The fun house mirror reflected image leads you back into the picture and up and around the man. In addition the artist filled the entire frame.

Picture 2: In this image there is the use of framing and a focal point. The wall and refrigerator in the back set a frame for the main focal point in the image, the girl.

Picture 3: In this image there is the use of having a level horizon, point of view and rule of thirds. The horizon is level and the point of view that this picture was taken is that of being down at the childs level. In addition there is the use of the rule of thirds here. The boy and bubbles help to create an interesting piece.
