Why is it sometimes that a photograph or piece of art really
speaks to your soul? What are your photographs really saying? To
you? To others? What is your vision? What does your work
emphasize? Focal point in photography is something artists will
talk about as part of their work. The principle of art called
emphasis also seems obvious at first thought yet if you look
closer the principle of art called emphasis is much fuller in
scope than simply a focal point. Whether a specific element of
art, emotion, general feeling, a person or a part of nature, it
is what the picture emphasizes. It could be color or one of the
other elements, but it is what your eye is drawn to in a photo
or drawing or what captures the intensity of emotional reaction
in those who view your work. |Emotive emphasis-more than just a

in photography, the place that draws your eye yet it is used a
bit differently tha
