Analogic Code


You could use the Analogic Code when analyzing this picture. Your eyes go to the pumpkins. Once you have looked at the pumpkins you start to make comparisons such as; size, craftsmanship of the designs, and the designs themselves.

Indexical Sign


In this picture you could use Indexical Sign principle. In the background you can see a lot of fog and dark clouds. This could lead one to conclude that it has rained, or is going to rain in the future.

Gestalt- Proximity


In this picture you can apply Gestalt's Proximity concept. In this picture all of the individuals are touching each other in some way, and are close to each other. Using this principle you can conclude that these five guys are friends.

Apparent Movement


In this picture apparent movement is being used. The numbers are not actually moving, but because of the splashes drawn to around the numbers and the tilt given to the numbers it appears the numbers are being dropped into water.

Atmospheric Perspective


In this picture the Atmospheric Perspective is being used. You can see the landscape, and the clouds which create a sense of depth. Since we know clouds are high in the air we can conclude that the people are high up in the air. Also being able to see the landscape creates the same effect.

Chiaroscuro


I feel that the Chiaroscuro style is being used in this picture. It has strong lights and also has some strong shadows.

Warm Colors


This picture shows examples of warm colors. The weights on the barbell are red, the shorts are red, and also the border is a red line. There are some cool colors in the picture as well, but I feel most of the attention is directed towards the warm colors.
