Bslsnce



Showing balance with this object required finding the perfect place to have the object be balanced. This was done through placing the object in a kitchen near kitchen utencils. This was largely a comparative choice, comparing the object to its surroundings. The other objects complement the spice rack to create an interesting image.

Perspective









Texture



The textures of the various spices  and parts of the spice rack are emphasized in these photos. In the first photo, a leafy spice is shown, while inthe last photo a coarse spice is shown in detial. The middle picture shows the texture of the containers the spice rack rests on. These photos are zoomed in upon, focusing on the detials.

Lighting




The lighting in these images creates different and unique shadows of the spice rack. In the first image it is very dark, making it difficult to see the spices in the spice rack at all. The viewer therefore focuses their attention on the shapes and  shadows. Comparatively, the last photo is taken in a bright area. As a result of the lighting attention is drawn away from the shadows, and onto the object.

Emphasis




Emphasis in these photos is on the spice rack. Particular emphasis focuses on the top of the spice rack, where the most interesting shapes are. The lighting in these photos directs the eye to the metalic parts of the spice rack while  the spices recieve less emphasis. The first photo in particular shows this emphasis, as the focal point in the photo is on the metal and the shadows cast upon it by the surrounding lighting.
