Centre of Interest and Focal Point

I've finally had the chance to put more photos up on my blog that I will most likely put onto folio. These images contain a further analysis and comment on how I've structures the photograph, but mainly describing the Centre of Interest & the Focal Point.

In this first image, my eyes have been drawn to the shuttering hand movements of the Pati. That then leads my viewing onto the material of the Lavalava where it shows me the surrounding of my frame. I really like how the camera has caught this moment whereas when I made may attempts before that, it made the whole photo very blurry & it was hard to look at.  

  

 This is my first photograph that I put up on my blog. In this photograph, I think that the dominant view is straight onto the different contrast of colours from bottom right leading up to the strings that's attached to the Lavalava. It then shoots your eyes to the black background of the main image. I really like this photo because you wouldn't have known it was taken in the Dark Room as my Photography teacher had mentioned to me a few lessons after I took this.

In this image, I think the whole of the Lavalava captures the audiences eyes. We see that the colour red is always appealing, because it's bright and most of the frame is contained with the material. That also captivates our eyes to the dominant black Polynesian patterns that are on the tupenu. I don't think the audience would look at it properly like I photographer would, but down in the bottom a flat 1cm surface is blurred but I don't know how its don't that ?
