Line

Line has most strongly been used to create the strong horizon line and hence fore-middle- and background. The thin repeated lines of the mesh create pattern and simulated texture. The swirling lines of the wave crests create movement and an ominous atmosphere. The thick bold lines of the frame create a focal point and highlight the unusual object in this setting.

The photographer has created a composition that contrasts the geometric lines of the square frame with the organic lines of the broken mesh.

Example from year 12 student in the 2010 end of year exam
