This photo is breaking the rule of thirds by placing the main focus of the picture in the center of the image. This photo uses many lighter colors making the photo look happy and the brighter colors draw your attention. The photograph uses the Structural frame because he brakes the rule with the rule of thirds as the van is in the middle but keeps the horizon line on the third.

Purple Haze

Purple haze is one of Eugene Tan's photos that doesn't follow many rules, but the photo brakes the rules in the right way. The photo is taken in Santa Monica California United States of America.

Kimberly Colours

Kimberly Colours shows the true colours of Western Australia where the photo is taken. The photo that is taken in Broome Western Australia has two very different colours. The contrast of the blue sky and ocean and the red of the road. The difference between the colours really divides the photo into to parts. The photo really captures the very iconic blueness of both the sky and the red dust of the ground. The photo was taken on the 13th August 2012. The photo has both big aspects of both the structural frame and the cultural frame because the photo structure is the fact that it doesn't follow the rule of thirds but the photo is almost split in half. The cultural side is, what Western Australia looks like.

Winki Gold

Winki Gold is taken in Winkipop, Victoria, Australia. It has a blue ocean with a hint of gold coming from the sunset which makes the sky also gold. The very top of the wave there is a golden light from the sunset. The photo was taken on the 12 January 2012. The photo has a man surfing on the only wave in the photo. This points to the cultural frame as it says that even though the conditions aren't the best people will still get out and on the surf and use the minimal waves to get either practice or surf for the fun of it.
