Solution:

 

Serial no.	Scenarios	Gestalt law (1)	Explanation (3)
1.	Ahmed thought that people who were talking to each other at the festival were groups of people.	Proximity	According to the law of proximity, things that are the close together seem more related than things that are spaced farther apart.   Principle of proximity states when two or more elements are close to each other, the position of these element portray the relationship between separate parts and render a specific meaning to that group.
2.	The              wildlife photographer saw blue birds with sharp feathers and black birds with furry appearance. He labelled them as two separate groups of birds.

3.	Sana saw some birds flying in a particular direction and she thought that they are a group and all going to their home nest together.	Good Continuation	The law of continuity holds that points that are connected by straight or curving lines re seen in a way that follows the smoothest path and in other words, elements in a line or curve seem more related to another than those positioned randomly.   The principles of continuity states that whenever our eyes begin to follow something, they will continue to travel in that direction until it encounters another object and the eyes create momentum as they are compelled to move through the one object and continue to another.
4.	Amna was solving her geometry paper. She saw some lines that              were disconnected. She was surprised to see that when she connected those lines, a circle or triangle   would   be formed.	Closure	According to law of closure we perceive elements as belonging to same group, if its seem to complete some entity. Our brains often ignore contradictory information and fill gaps in information.   Closure occurs when element is incomplete or not enclosed in space. It subconsciously involves in filling of missing gaps or information. When enough of the shape is show and its still incomplete our mind tends to fill blanks and construct the whole shape.
5.	Salman viewed the clouds and main figures      as      he observed them along with the sky.	Figure and Ground	The human eye can differentiate an object from surrounding. We perceive certain objects as beings in foreground and other objects as being in the background.
