Design layout basic: Contrast



This picture used the contrast with shape, there are two different types of shape in one picture and this technique showed the round shape is the main object in the picture.
                   
This picture used the contrast with size, there are two different size element in one picture and this successfully emphasized the pyramid is much bigger than the human.


                             
This picture used the contrast with tunnel value, the light coming in from outside of the cave created a idea that the cave is darker than the outside, and the light in coming in from the outside.

                   
This picture used the contrast with typeface, although the designer used the same font for every words but the designer used bold for the word "Celebration" as to emphasize on the title in order to catch audience
attention.

       
This picture used the contrast with color to emphasize on the main object that the picture want to show, with the use of contrast in color the capsicum is outstanding than those green apple.

  1. I like the image of the person at the cave opening, and I'm interested in using it as a graphic image for a course I'm promoting. Do you know how I could get the rights to do that? Thanks.
