Description:
"I took this picture right outside my school. I was walking back to school with my friends after a field trip. I needed to take a picture for a school photography project, and a bright, purple flower caught my eye. This isn’t my favorite picture that I’ve taken, but my teacher liked it and told me to enter it into this contest.
When you live in a big city, a blooming flower is quite a phenomenon. Growth and nature is a phenomenon in itself, even if you don’t live in an urban area. But inside a city, it is more rare to see a spectacle like a vibrant, purple flower, blooming by the sidewalk. This flower is definitely a phenomenon.
My photograph uses a couple of elements of composition. It uses the rule of thirds. Another thing my picture has is balance between the subject and the background. My picture also has vibrant colors and avoids mergers. Those are a couple photographic elements used in my picture."
