Pictures can demonstrate more than one visual dynamic. I already used this photograph for contrast but it also contains rules of thirds when talking about points of power. At the intersection in the bottom right hand corner lies the dogs nose and because it is stationed there the eye is drawn to the dogs face and particularly the nose. A feature that lies on a line rather than an intersection is the eye making the face another point of power.
This picture is one of my favorites. One of the challenging thing about capturing visual dynamics on film is find things that fit the criteria. Something as ordinary as a traffic sign can severe many purposes and in this case it frames the person standing underneath it.
The flower takes up two thirds of this picture while the grass takes up the other one third. This particular photograph is an example of the visual dynamic known as rule of thirds focusing on proportion.
Contrast is shown in this picture. The difference between the yellow lab and the dark couch creates a bit of drama to this otherwise peaceful scene. Also, the dark features of the dog, such as its eyes, nose, and paws, create contrast
This photograph is an example of leading lines. The eye is drawn by the railroad tracks to the emphasis which is the arch created by the trees. Pictures can exhibit more than one visual dynamics as in this picture the trees also create a frame.
