The Freeman theory found in this photograph would be vertical lines. The tree is the main component of the image and helps draw the eye straight to it. It helps determine the alignment of the picture as well. The direction in which the tree moves is the main force of gravity and helps elongate the entire picture. Without the tree in this picture one’s eyes would not move in a vertical fashion. Vertical lines often exude strength and power. It becomes the focal point of the image regardless of what is going on around the tree. Although the tree has branches going every which way, our eyes still stay focused on the trunk of the tree. It has the most presence and creates alignment and central focus.
