Pictorial Lines: Arrangement, Decorative, and Lines Leading to Subject

Arrangement: In photography, the arrangement composition for pictorial lines is the capturing of lines in a photo and having no subject or focal point after you take the lines away. Taking the lines away is done mentally, but if you can image the lines gone, and you see something blank or nothing being captured, then that is a picture under the category of arrangement. My goal for this composition was to take photographs of things that had many lines, but a sort of blank wall or surface after removing them, because that was what the arrangement composition meant to me.

Decorative: The second composition under pictorial lines that we used was decorative. The decorative composition is the idea that when removing the lines upon imagination, there is still a photo that has a subject, focal points, and things going on, as opposed to a blank wall.  My goal for taking pictures in the decorative category was to have a clear subject that had lines, and then also having something either going on behind it in the background, or having shapes and outlines remain. 

Lines leading to subject: The final composition under pictorial lines we used was lines leading to subject. Lines leading to subject is a composition in which there are lines leading the viewer's eye to a subject. Similar to the leading lines composition we did earlier in this class, the only different being the lines are leading to a subject as opposed to the background or foreground. I went for a bit of a mix between the pictures here because in some of them the subject that the lines are leading to is obvious, and the other ones not so much. My goal here was to make sure the viewer would be able tell that this is the lines leading to subject composition, but see different ways of capturing the composition.
