space
What is Space? 
Spacing is how the reader feels about the distance of space between them and the object.  you can put small objects high to make it seem like they are far. you can put big objects towards the bottom to make the appear closer. 

positive/negative
Positive space - is the area being used up by an object 
Negative space- is the area not being used by an object
i used up the postiive space on the right side by adding one big square almost covering all the bottom right side. I barely left any white space remaing. However on the left side i put three smaller versions of the square along the side and which left ample room for negative space. 

lines
line- a line can be used to outline or to imply a certain area. There are three types or lines, the type you draw (actual), dotted-lines(implied, black space (imaginary).The way i utilised my lines was to outline the 2015 and then do the lights as well as wire. 



shapes/texture
shapes- are objects that take up space such as a picture of a boy or a duck
texture- is how the objects appears to feel for example rough, smooth etc
The way i used shapes and texture in this photo was to incorporate allot of pond life creature and make it seem like one thing.Since my photo was too complex, i decided that texture was a bit too much for this picture.

Critics: 

symmetrical- for this one i did not like how the new one came out, it looked funny and very plain. i liked my original better because it had more used up space.  I wish more of the colors i had used were also used in the new version. In fact, the new version seem as if they had erased most of my work. 

asymetrical

radial

 Symmetrical 


Asymmetrical- i also happen to like my original for this one as well but i loved my new version better because it had neon colors. It seemed to be placed in a nice place and did not affect the color balance in my original. 



Radial- for the raidal one i did not like my original version because it seemed messy and werid. The new version did not improve, i would have wanted to see some ripples or some thing but all i saw was some waves that did not seem to fit with the picture. For some peoples there radial balanced worked but i did not see a transformation and i could barely notice it.
