The reflection of the trees, buildings, and sky in the
water creates a mirror image. This is a classic
example of vertical symmetry. Both sides of the
image are visually balanced with similar elements,
creating a sense of order and harmony.

The subject (red flowers) fills
the entire frame, drawing the
viewer's attention directly to
the flowers without any
distractions. This technique
creates an immersive and
detailed view of the subject.

The single leaf is placed in the

around it. This use of negative
space emphasizes the leaf and

contemplative feel.
