What kind of images are good? Images that move, dance, and motivate us to move!
1. Diagonals, shadows and light
In praise of dynamic images with off-center (asymmetric) compositions.
2. Gritty photos
Photos with textures, grain, grit, and asymmetric divisions.
3. Converging lines
Combine curved lines, converging lines.
4. Grit, black and white, scratches
Scratchy photos — heighten feelings of movement? Or lots of “beatsâ€in the image?
5. Drip
Dripping paint — something which also fascinated us with graffiti and street art? We can feel and witness the dripping of the paint (more dynamic, more movement).
6. Veins
Photos which look there are veins in the image.
7. Nature
Natural dynamism in nature — petals of flowers.
8. Eye contact
Also note the dynamic hand gesture.
9. Oil
Oil, water, liquids on reflective surfaces.
10. Decay
Decaying and peeling paint — we can witness the degradation before our own eyes.
