This photo is from the depth of field assignment. For this photo I used three rules of composition. I used depth of field so that the background is blurry, and the mask, which is the focal point, stands out more because it is in focus. I also used rule of thirds because I tried not to place the mask directly in the center of the photo, but rather off to the bottom right. You can also see leading lines in my photo with the bark of the tree leading down to the mask, the lines of the grass leading up to the mask, and the mask ribbons trailing off on either side. In this photo I also used a principle of design. By shooting the mask up close I wanted it to be emphasized.
