The negative space refers to the empty or non-subject areas in a photograph. In this case, the subject is the vase of flowers. Based on the description, the negative spaces would be:
- white bricks: since the background is described as white brick, the space between the bricks would be empty and considered negative space.
- lines between the bricks: as mentioned, there are lines between the bricks which create empty spaces that can be considered negative space.
The other options, such as the green color of the flower stems and water in the vase, are not negative spaces as they are part of the subject itself.
