Rhythm

Regular Rhythm


Regular rhythm in photography is a rhythm that is a pattern of equal shapes, with equal distances between and sizes.

The metal fence here is a regular rhythm; the diamond shape is the recurring shape and it is arranged such that it is in a pattern and is regular.

Another regular rhythm. I can tell it is a regular rhythm because the shapes and symbols are, again, recurring and if the photograph was larger then it is likely that the pattern would continue exactly the same as it is.















Flowing Rhythm


Flowing rhythm is a rhythm that is similar to a regular rhythm but some shapes are in different places.

I can tell this is a flowing rhythm because it is that similar line-ish shape repeated many times in different places and different sizes. The ball, however, is not part of the rhythm.







Progressive Rhythm


A progressive rhythm is a rhythm that gets progressively  (hence the name) larger or smaller based on which direction it is leading. 

I can tell this is a progressive image because it has these figures that get smaller as they go into the background of the image and bigger as they go towards the foreground.
