Texture
Can you imagine what each of these would feel like if you rubbed your fingers across them?
More examples of texture in a photo
Shape
• A silhouette of a hillside (by Tori Dotson) makes a strong shape The light and dark sides of these steps play
up their boxy shapes. Note how they also repeat to make a pattern bringing the eye from the top left side of the frame to the bottom right.
Several Leading Lines
The lines in the front decking bring your eye back to the far dock and then into the city in the background. You are following lines with your eyes.
A single curved line
Lines converging in a single point

The only way to get a shot like this is to move your position. Those buildings are not moving for you!
Light or value
This photo taken by CAPS student Matt Christenson, shows value and texture in this close up.
Notice how the contrast between the dark and light and the strong shadows makes this photo more interesting.

The lighting in this photo is what makes the moss
stand out and the whole forest seem unique.

Texture again…
But you see the texture because of the back lighting….
• Ok, go out and start taking some photos of your own!
