The photo I have chosen to study from the internet is one of lots and lots of brown leaves up against a curb, the leaves spill out into the road in a spontaneous fashion. The inclusion of the curb by the photographer adds an element of depth to the photograph however, the curb could be used to show depth in a much better fashion by having the curb starting from one corner and ending at the other.
The photo of my own I have chosen to study is a photograph of a very small pile of leaves against a curb with focus on the patterns in the pavement. The central point of the photograph includes the leaves themselves as the main subjects. I aimed to use tone in this photograph by looking at the deep colours of the leaves and also thought about form and the shadow cast by the curb as the light is above it keeping the other side in the dark.
These two photos connect because they share a subject and also use extremely similar surroundings, colour schemes and features. They differ though in the style of shot for example, one is shot portrait and the other landscape then one is using depth where as one focuses more on other formal elements such as form, texture and tone.
