Symmetry & Asymmetry






Symmetry is the balance of a design elements where one side equals another.
Asymmetry is an imbalance between two parts normally alike. ( Lack of symmetry).
My photographs demonstrate symmetry because it brings a sense of unity through the repetition of the elements in my picture, when on the other hand my other three photographs portray asymmetry because the elements in my images are not balance. The biggest challenge for me was that it was hard to capture symmetrical/asymmetrical pictures outside on a field where there was mostly trees. However, my biggest success was in the auditorium because there was a lot of symmetry/ asymmetry to capture from the chairs, to the ceiling etc.
