Your second shot is amazing with the perfect balance of lines and colors, and it is a Kat-like image. And I also find the third one so lovely in its colors and balance of shapes. Well done!ginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08748316725457763377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-450867615304249045.post-82035262445888289722012-03-22T11:58:20.667+11:002012-03-22T11:58:20.667+11:00GREAT job!

I think that the balance is achieved in your first shot, with the repetition of the shapes in the post leading you further into the photograph. Your second two shots are excellent examples of the balance of shapes. Nicely done!

That protrusion at the top of the structure on the left, even though there's only one, still ties in with those other shapes.<br />The second one, the bench and gridded window opening, is a perfect example of balance. In fact, it looks to me like a "Kat shot"! :-) And I agree with Brenda about the third one. The stonework, the windows, the red - all come together to make a beautiful image.seablueleehttp://seabluelens.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-450867615304249045.post-38960562235963816712012-03-21T04:30:09.861+11:002012-03-21T04:30:09.861+11:00Fantastic images.

Love the symetry of the last shot but I think the bench with the lines and textures is my favourite.Becshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08277433980891380143noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-450867615304249045.post-45086328307724494082012-03-21T01:48:54.714+11:002012-03-21T01:48:54.714+11:00Leanne - for me, balance is something that is more...Leanne - for me, balance is something that is more intuitive and I find it somewhat difficult to put into words how I applied those concepts to my images. In your second photo, the bench and the gridded window balance each other nicely - both have the same rustiness and share horizontal lines. The expanse of white wall, with its vertical lines, provides a great backdrop for these elements. I love the third image - fantastic arched windows. The three red elements are what draws my eye - the reel, the pipe and the hose - which are balanced by the warm stonework background.Brendahttp://gottgraphicsdesign.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-450867615304249045.post-23880222991091216832012-03-20T23:25:39.158+11:002012-03-20T23:25:39.158+11:00You did great with this Leanne.

I think that 2nd shot with the bench really nailed it, but I am a fan of street art and graffiti, so I like the top shot a lot-Happy spring to you.Simon https://www.blogger.com/profile/03844538179633976411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-450867615304249045.post-76382067777189313142012-03-20T16:19:12.284+11:002012-03-20T16:19:12.284+11:00Awesome photos and I love how you break them down,...Awesome photos and I love how you break them down, it actually helps with the way in which I look at them, after reading your words xoAll For Lovehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13151973819133926868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-450867615304249045.post-18850383899234189892012-03-20T08:28:27.679+11:002012-03-20T08:28:27.679+11:00Nice to visit you here thanks to your visit to me!...Nice to visit you here thanks to your visit to me! <br />The shot I like best is the second one because the bench and the opening with the grid create an interesting tension between them which creates balance. I also like the texture of the 3 main elements and the green vertical line of concrete(?) which runs behind the grid.Sandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17015603838340372502noreply@blogger.com
