Curves - notes

Curves, like diagonals, have a sense of movement and direction, and in some ways can be considered a kine of diagonal line. Because they pull the eye in, they are useful in planned composition. Curves have associations of soothness, grace and legance, and so add these feelings to an image. I had taken a few 'curved' images for this exercise but on further review of them I realised that I was simply taking a literal image of a curve without the sense of movement. I deleted these from my blog and started the exercise again after looking for some examples elsewhere, starting with Bridgeman Educaton.
