Leading lines 2
3
Leading lines in photography are existing lines within the frame of a photograph which the photographer has deliberately aligned/arranged (prior to taking the photo) by adjusting their composition either shifting their body or camera. It should result in lines which “lead” to the subject, increasing the focus of the viewer, allowing for a more enjoyable viewing experience.

Contrast 8
Contrast in photography refers to one of two phenomena.

1. Tonal contrast which is the difference between the lightest and darkest parts of the image.
Members of the society were tasked to take two images of visual interest which represent each of these characteristics of contrast.
2. Conceptual contrast which highlights the contrast between two often opposing ideas.
