ColorThis is a color shot because you can see the

red, yellow, and a little green on the shell.

LinesYou can see individual lines on the shell while

It’s in the spiral.

Close-upThis shot is Close-up because It’s so close in

the shell you can see the inside.

FramingI used the sand to set up a square-like frame

around the shell.

SimplicityThis photo is simplicity because nothing is

happening in it but the shell sitting there.

LightingThis photo is Lighting because I was shining

my phone flashlight on it.

Black and whiteI changed the normal shot to

Black and white.

Rule of thirdsI centered the two rocks next to the spiral but it was obvious that the center is the spiral.

BalanceI used the tiny shells to surround the big shell and center it a.k.a. balance.

Editing techniquesI made the shell colorful and the rest black and white for editing techniques.

My theme was

Seashells
