In the first shot, there are two green buoys, at equal distance from the edge of the frame. The buoy on the right, although slightly further away, draws more attention than the other because of its size and more interesting shape but also for its reflexion in the water.
The second photo of a sailing boat and a yellow buoy gives clear prominence to the boat (which is, again, further away but larger) but here, interestingly, the relationship between the two is much reduced by two lines, the trail of a boat that has moved out of the frame to the left, and the line of the horizon which splits the frame.
Finally, another shot of buoys but this time I placed one very close to the edge of the frame to see the affect on the relationship between the two.
It seems to me that there is a more equal relationship between the two subjects. On the one hand, the red buoy is bigger and has a longer reflexion but is further away and closer to the edge of the frame. The other buoy, although smaller, is closer, more in the centre of the foreground and the yellow colour stands out more against the blue of the water.
