Implied motion means that motion is suggested, but not shown
in action. The implied motion in these photos is shown through the Gestalt Law
of Continuation. The Law of Continuation states that we expect lines and
patterns to continue. The pattern
of the track, sides of track, and railing imply that the car is moving. The car
itself is still. Another indication
of implied motion is the wheels, which show a continuous pattern. The photo
also displays imbalance, which was also mentioned by Dondis. The photograph is
shot in a triangular shape, which creates movement through stress. The diagonal
continuous lines as well as the direction of the car show the implied movement.
