Composition is an interestingly complicated thing. Most of the time we struggle with the image's components and how they relate to each other. The rules to remember; "Don't put the subject tin the middle..." "Look at the rule of thirds..." Seemingly endless frustration. Then again, there's color.

 

So much about photography is about the light. Goes without saying since the concept of photography is all about capturing... light. Sometimes people make a thing about perfect light, like it's some sort of mythical animal we photographers should always search for. Light, it's a thing. As often as we shoot around the golden hour in search of light, success is still fleeting.

 

Sometimes, all of it comes together. The light. The composition. Everything comes together. As hard as we try, such success can be a surprise. Yet another aspect of photography I love.
