Principles of Design - Proportion

This picture represents proportion because the b-boy in front is greater in size than the people and the Eiffel Tower at the back. It shows how size of one object varies according to it's position in a picture as compared to other objects.

Principles of Design - Rhythm

This picture represents rhythm since it shows the repetition of the entrance and the pillars over and over again.  Their size and shape tend to change as we move from right to left which gives a sense of continuation.

Principles of Design - Harmony

This Picture manifests harmony since it shows unity between two people joining their fists. Also, this picture uses colors from the same color pallet ie. Brown, giving a harmonious effect as all the parts tend be complimenting each other.
