In this photograph by Ansel Adams, he uses line, shape, texture, and contrast elements to capture a powerful image of this tree. You can see the lines of the tree trunk which also creates a textured feeling that tree is rough. Even though you can’t physically feel the texture of the tree trunk in the picture, it gives you a sense that there is friction on the tree. The picture is black and white, but has a lot of contrast because there is lightness and darkness of the tree and sky, which creates depth that reveals many details in this photograph. He also uses shape in this photograph because he captured the picture in a silhouette form that takes the shape of the leafless tree and can see all the skinny, small branches of the tree. You can also see the shape of the leaves and trees in the background.
