Lines : Even though these lines in the picture are not perfectly straight, they are still eye catching and lead your eye to the center of attention in this picture which is the pot of flowers. Most of the time straight lines are commonly found in pictures which is a softer feel on the viewer's eye. However, is this picture, even though the lines are not straight, they are still present and catch the viewer's eye.  Rule of Thirds: Rule of Thirds is not a difficult element to add to a picture. All you have to do is t...
