1) Row of of Grey Lag geese
The image below was taken in Kensington garden in London. It was very warm and sunny. I wanted to take a picture of all the geese standing next to the curve which would have been seen as a cuve and all of them would have faced in one direction but as far as ducks/geese are concerned, they tend to preen themselves all the time! (every 3 seconds) so all I could see was all the geese facing down preening themselves next to the pond!
2) Tree The image below was taken while walking through the park. I have to admit I try to copy the image I remember from the handbook which has a tree truck and 2 circles on both side. This tree is however different, just slightly. the curve itself is induced from the branches curving down. I place a tree on the edge of the frame so I can see all the branches curving down.
3) Metal Fence
This image was taken near the Diana, Princess of Wales Memorial Fountain As I walked along the fence I could see the curve line of the fence interact with lines that are made by people (vertical lines) walking (horizontal direction) further behind. I think the lines (vertical and horizontal) has emphasised the curve made by the fence.
4) The staircase
This image was taken in Sommerset House. This staircase isnot quite so curvy but as I look up to the ceiling I like how it's shape has formed which does look quite spiral.
Summary:
1. Curve contains a change of direction. It has movement so it carries the eye along itself.
2. Curves are more difficult to put in picture. It can be an implied line by connecting many points in pictures or it can be an obvious line like those images I took.
