ACTIVITY #03 - BALANCE
Elegance, by Elizabeth Craig shows symmetrical balance. The same shapes, patterns, and hatching are shown on both the right and left sides of the print.
The mobile art, by Alexander Calder on display at the Walker Art Center is asymmetrically balanced. The weight of the shape on the right side is balanced by the smaller object to the left.

Punta Cana, Dominican Republic
The contrasting colors of the yellow house with the different hues of green from the surronding trees make this a beautiful shot. The beauty of the house was exemplified with the stillness of the photo. In real-time, the intense yellow hue of the house captivates the senses and the beauty of the house is lost.
This photo sort provides an optical illusion because of the slanting of the trees to the right and the clouds that are going to the left. It looks as though there might have been a storm approaching. I took this photo on a perfectly beautiful clear day, however I was in a moving speed boat, hence the illusion.

Las Vegas, Nevada
I spent my Memorial Day weekend in Las Vegas, Nevada. Although Vegas is known to be a party town, commonly referred to as Sin City, Vegas has some of the most beautiful architect. The detail and design of some of hotels and casinos are just breathtaking, both interior and exterior design.
The photo below is a picture taken at night of the Eiffel Tower which is a replica of the original Eiffel Tower in Paris, France. However, I don’t think it is as tall as the Eiffel Tower in Paris. Appropriately so, the Eiffel Tower in Vegas is in the Casino and Hotel Paris.
From the top of the Eiffel Tower, I was able to get this amazing aerial shot of Vegas. Take note of the desert and mountains in the back. Simply beautiful!
