Repitition and Foreground/Background Focus Pictures: 9/19/2012

For this picture I used the macro settings on the camera to shoot the origami and the book in focus, while the tree in the background is out of focus.

The building in the background is out of focus and it sets up the colors of the origami cube and its boldness nicely.

In this picture the miniature globe is the only thing in focus, and the out of focus books creates a nice background.

The technique of foreground/background focusing was used in this picture to display the flower. All of your attention is drawn towards the flower because everything else in the picture is out of focus.

Repetition as well as rule of thirds were used when shooting this picture. 

The repetition of the lockers in this picture sets up the subject on the right side well.
