I while back I remember someone posted a list of elements in an image that the eye is drawn to/away from. Things like light to dark, focus to out-of-focus, saturated to non-saturated, etc. I've been searching for almost half an hour, but I can't find that post. Can anyone point me to it?

Thanks, Jeanie

Maybe this one? (http://www.retouchpro.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=4903)

That wasn't the one I was thinking of Doug, but it was good to go back and read through that thread. I'm afraid the one I wanted may have hit the bit-bucket when the Photo-Art forum was cleaned up. :( I'm pretty sure it was either roger_ele or Bill M who posted it - and it would have been in the past 2 (maybe 3) months, but I can't find it by searching through any of their posts. It was an actual list of things that an eye is drawn to and away from in a photo. I remember there being about 8 items on the list, but the only three I can remember are light/dark, focus/out-of-focus, saturated/unsaturated.

Thanks anyway,
Jeanie


FYI - It would have only been deleted had the thread been in the self-service mini-challenge forum which was pruned in preparation for the makeover to the new format. - Danny

Was it this one ?
