Artichture Preview Shoot

1. Details -
I think that this photo meets the details architecture because it shows the texture of the mans face and the frown that he is making. The photo is also a wide shot photo.

2. Light -
I think this photo shows the requirements of the light artchicture because the shutter speed is slow enough too catch the light in the photo. Also because the light is circles and has detail too it.

3. Patterns -
i think that i got patterns because it has repeated lines and the same shapes. It also repeats over and over again in the same pattern.

4. Angles and shapes-
This photo has both angles and shapes because it shows square shapes of homes. It also shows 90 degree angels.

5. Surroundings -
I think that the photo above was framed by the two mountains on the side. I also think this defines the building because of the cross on top of the building.
