Dominance through size and focal point. Dominance of the first or top flower in this picture is achieved<br />

through both its larger size and because it is in focus, while the smaller flower is soft and out of focus.<br />

Dominance in this image is achieved through color. In this photograph of coneflowers, the image was<br />

converted to black and white and then the original colour of the petals was returned using the history<br />

paint brush in Adobe Photoshop. <strong>The</strong> original photo’s background was too colorful, resulting in a<br />

distracting background that didn’t allow the beautiful colors of the cone flowers to stand out.<br />
