Color dominance is shown in this picture because the red shoes pop. Everything else is dull and your attention is drawn to the shoes.

Amplified Perspective is shown in this picture by the yellow lips. They create a dramatic effect and illusion in the photo.

Transparency is when two fabrics are put against each other and you can clearly see both. The blue top is seen clearly under the black.
