Rules of Composition from Flickr

My assignment was to find 3 pictures on flickr that represent the Rules of Composition.

This first picture is rule #1 Get down on their level. I chose this picture because I love dogs and this picture makes me think of my dog. This is taken at floor level down with the dog.

My next picture shows rule # 2 Use plain background. I chose this picture because the white flower pops out from the plain background.

My last picture is for rule #4 Move in close. Moving in close shows more color and detail of the bird. I like how you can see the details of the bird's head.
