Composition Challenge: In this activity, students will be given a set of photographs and asked to analyze and identify the principles of art used in each image. They will then be tasked with creating their own photograph that demonstrates their understanding of one or more of these principles. For example, they may choose to focus on the principle of balance by capturing a symmetrical scene or experiment with the principle of contrast by juxtaposing elements with different textures or colors.

Lighting Experiment: Understanding the principles of light and shadow is crucial in photography. In this activity, students will explore the principles of art related to lighting by conducting a lighting experiment. They will set up a still life scene and experiment with different lighting techniques, such as natural light, artificial light, and various angles of light. They will then analyze the resulting photographs and discuss how the principles of art, such as emphasis or rhythm, were affected by the different lighting choices.

Perspective Study: Perspective is an important principle of art in photography, as it can create depth and dimension in an image. In this activity, students will study different perspectives and experiment with various techniques to convey depth in their photographs. They will explore concepts such as one-point perspective, leading lines, and vanishing points. Students will be encouraged to think creatively and apply these principles to capture images that evoke a sense of depth and spatial relationships. They will then present their photographs and discuss how the principles of art were utilized to create the desired effect.
