I took this picture on the second walk we did. A sense of journey is shown very clearly here along with the element of depth. The angle at which this picture was taken emphasises the idea of journey, making the path look longer than it really is, this adds a sense of adventure to the picture. The wet pavement and the leaves along the path confirms the theme of Autumn in the picture. It also adds a cool tone and gives us the impression that it's cold. There is no one present in this picture - this shows isolation and further shows journey because it exaggerates on the length of this path.
I found this picture on the internet by typing in 'journey'. This picture shows colour, depth and a sense of journey. The yellow coloured lines contrast to the road, making it stand out and displaying journey very clearly. The blue sky also contrasts to the yellow lines once again making them stand out so the viewer can concentrate on them and figure out the theme straight away. The yellow lines can also be leading lines, guiding the viewer eyes' through the picture.
In both pictures, we can see a sense of journey being portrayed clearly by using the same techniques. Both pictures were taken at a low angle to make the path/road look longer. The element of depth has been used to guide the viewer through the picture and it's almost as if they are being invited on a journey; the lines go from the bottom of the picture to the middle or all the way through, forcing the viewer to move their eyes along. However, the picture from the internet has included the sky because it helps to bring out the yellow lines; the blue colour of the sky contrasts with the yellow and automatically makes the picture more colourful. My picture does not have the sky, I did not include it because it was a dark rainy day so it would have ruined the picture by blending in with the white line along the path.
