This one's a question. Which image is "better"? Taken from the same camera position. First image is a regular (17mm) shot from my "normal" height. For the second image the camera height is raised and the lens shifted down to compensate. Two very different perspectives - which one do you think is the better RE image?
The September bonus challenge at Compositionally Challenged is "Self Portraiture". For this shot, I set the camera on a tripod in portrait mode with a 10 second delay. And stood in the bathroom with a white shower curtain for the background.
In my humble opinion, this is the toughest challenge we've had in the 4+ year history of the group. Be that as it may, I do my best with every challenge, even if that 'best' isn't very good. Venturing outside my comfort zone is almost always a good learning experience.
And how to take a photo of a famous building and have it be composed somewhat interestingly. The suspended rod to other structure is supposed to be part of the interest. Maybe...or some people will just think it's distorted. Whatever...
Composition using lines, circles and inch.
Chaplin was a person who always showed that he was happy.
That is the reason of why his face is divided in two, and half of it is fill with red inch, which represents the problems he had but he never showed.
April 2015 earthquake: I have enjoyed Nepal, the vibrancy of Kathmandu, its monuments and its people and I feel for them at this time. If you are going to use any of my images on your blogs, reports, publications etc. please consider giving a donation to help the country and its people. My preferred charity is Medicins Sans Frontieres / Doctors Without Borders (www.msf.org,uk or www.msf.ch or other national sites)

Seeds can seem so commonplace. They're everywhere. But how often do we consider their magic? Seeds range in shape and size from smaller than the tiny parachute-like dandelion seed to the weighty bulbous Seychelles nut, the largest seed in the plant kingdom at up to 65 pounds. Yet whether winged or whorled, notched or silky, all seeds contain within them the miracle of life.
I wish I had another picture to introduce the Sinai Peninsula than this one which doesn't show you much more than clouds, a bush and barren mountain playing hide and seek.
It's just that it's a shame that you can't realize
1) the sheer beauty of those mountains
2) the fact that the red sea is right behind me
3) the fact that Saudi Arabia's coastal mountains are right behind the red sea
It's like when you want to get from Jordan to the Sinai Peninsula in a ferry boat but the captain forbids anyone to go on the upper deck despite the perfect, sunny, windless weather.

Shooting a runway gig isn't only a documentary assignment. It's a good thing to look for compositional elements in addition to body language and that 'decisive moment.' By just shooting the obvious, you're taking the easy road, which usually leads nowhere. The green spotlights gave that compositional element I always look for. Shot with a loaner Tokina 50-135mm f/2.8 (80-200 film format). This is one sharp lens. I think I'll buy it.
