Landscapes
A landscape is a photograph, painting, or drawing of a natural scenery.
Landscapes usually have a focal point, a place where the viewer's eye goes to first. This could be done by the coloring, a person or animal, or the light source (the sun or moon). As objects recede into space, they get smaller and lighter in color. Objects that are closer to the viewer are darker in color and larger in scale. This is called SCALE and provides the landscape with SPACE and DEPTH. All landscapes must have a BACKGROUND, MIDDLE GROUND, and FOREGROUND to help achieve this.
