Here's a cool little image of a few medals of mine which I arranged into a composition. The three medals are the focus, given the white background. I arranged them in this manner to create balance (instead of a random placement) in a diagonal line that also creates a vanishing point. The gold, silver, and bronze colors as well as the blue, red, and white create nice contrasts as well as establish a sense of hierarchy of 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place.
I added the black and white image to show that the color image holds the most clear meaning and is thus a stronger composition than the B&W. This image would read more like gold was in the center, the silver at far right, and bronze in the foreground on the left... not the intended imagery.
