May I have your attention please?
In this image I have used several visual tools to draw the viewers attention to one specific area of the frame. To begin with the manner that the lines of the wire converge at the point of interest leads the eye inward. This is reinforced by the contrast of focus at the center verses at the edges. This differential in sharpness was achieved by selecting a large aperture which provides a shallow depth of field. This visual cue mimics one way in which we perceive depth in the real world. The last thing I have done was during processing I increased the brightness contrast between the center of the image and the area surrounding it. Whether this is a good image or not isn’t crucial, but it does achieve the intended outcome.
