Elements of art and principles of design interact in photography to create focal points and organization in the photos taken. It is difficult to take photos that only apply to one element of art and one principle of design because pictures and subjects can be put in so many categories. For example, the picture of the picnic tables can go under shape, line, or texture just for the elements of art, and under pattern, balance, or proportion for principles of design. Each picture can fit into so many categories, and it becomes difficult to determine which category to put it in.

The seven main genres of photography are Art, Photography and War, Digital Truth, Presidential Image-making, Persuasion, Social Change, and Cultural Identity. Art includes new and old photographs, often of objects or things that are happening around you. Photography and War is photography based around life, death, and violence. Digital Truth is truth or reality shown through raw, unedited photos. Presidential Image-making is basically the political side of photography. Persuasion in photography is most commonly used for advertisement and campaigning. Social Change is photography that is showing a problem and is used to convusing people to change it. Cultural Identity is a type of photography that shows someone or something that could be associated with or showing a certain aspect of culture. Most of the pictures I take tend to fall into the art category. I chose this picture because I love spending time with my friends. I used an iPhone 5S (front camera) to take this photo. I uploaded my image though my phone because I got the Weebly app. |
