Photo #5, Visual Weight

DSCN0712

Obviously, this photo was taken in Elon’s Magnolia Cemetery just off campus.  The images of the graves obviously are noticeable, but what really grabs the viewers attention is the Cemetery sign, located near the back.  This is mainly for two reasons, one, the color of the sign stands out by being so different from the rest of the photo, and two, the writing on it is clear, large, and also colored to stand out from its surroundings.  Also, the sign stand outs because it’s a pretty important piece of information.  After all, if it wasn’t present, this picture could’ve been taken in practically any cemetery in the world.
