Point, Line, Plane Photo Essay

taylorchalley

I took the following photos in an open area by my house that I enjoy going to and around my house as well. 


Image #1

Point:

This example reminded me of the building in the reading captioned "destructive points." Although I am not sure how these points were made, they look very similar to the points shown in the reading.  I took this picture straight on and in an area with more texture. I would say the texture in this image would be "concrete texture" because it has a robust appeal. 




Image #2

Point:

The points in this photo are represented by the flowers. I believe the stems could also represent lines as well. The bud of the flower would be a point because it is the end of the stem which could be considered a line. I framed the camera so the view was over top of the flowers to see each point. 




Image #3

Point:

I found a bunch of fallen apples on the ground and thought of them as points. They reminded me of a bunch of dots when looking at them through the camera lens. I originally wanted to take a picture of one hanging on the tree but I could not find a shot that I liked best.




Image #4

Line:

The lines in this photo are the poles and telephone wires. I positioned my camera from the ground looking up so there were many different lines to look at. 




Image #5

Line:

I lines I found for this photo are each individual plank on the bridge I was walking on. A line is an infinite series of points and I think this is shown really well with this photo. I positioned my camera from a birds eye view so that lines were very visible. I think this image shows a very "concrete texture" because of the criss crossing texture on the wood. 




Image #6

Line:

I think this image uses point and line. The main reason I took this photo was for the strings holding up the swing. The light in the trees could possibly also be considered a point. When taking this photo, I positioned my camera looking up so that you could see the rope stretching all the way up to the tree.




Image #7

Plane:

The plane in this photo is the gate the frames the flower in view. I think the planes are each image that is shown between the squares of the gate. When taking this photo, I framed it so that the fence lined up with the flower so that it would act as a frame. 




Image #8

Plane:

The plane in this image is the window on the building. I framed this photo using the rule of thirds positioning. The window acts a plane because it looks 2D in length and width.




Image #9

Plane:

The plane in this image would be the background. This photo has point, line, and plane as well. I framed the image so the stem and flower were visible as point and lines and then the background would act as a plane.




Image #10

Volume:

This image shows volume. I think this shows volume well because as the stairs go back farther you can see them getting smaller and smaller. I framed the camera look ing up at the stairs from the ground so you can see them go into the distance.




Image #11

Volume: 

This image shows volume because the chair closer to the camera seems bigger and the chair farther from the camera seems smaller to show depth. 




Image #12

Volume:

The final image I took to show volume was of a fence the continued down the path. The part of the fence that was closest to me seemed bigger and then got smaller as it goes into the distance. I framed the camera so that you can see how the fence starts to seem smaller as it goes into the distance.
