#4 Texture
Quote - Texture adds visual weight to items in photographs. Texture is just more interesting and our eyes are drawn to it. Smooth areas will feel lighter than those with a lot of heavy texture.

Texture -then the photo that shows which tip you are interpreting..does that make sense?

#3 is Value
Quote - Value is a powerful tool for balancing images. Dark elements feel heavier than light items. The higher the value-contrast (between object and background), the heavier will be the weight of the object.
Your examples help get the concepts across.

Looks good to me! Like your explanations with the examples....Helps us to see concept!
The dark background balances the size of the tree and also seems to bring attention to the tree's form and
branches...
The solitude of the Church as seen from the top of a steep hill, once down below the Church is no longer visible.
Then the blue, but the stump tells quite a story!
