This was a hard composition b/c following the rule of thirds with regard to the horizon did not leave the foreground, middle, and background in good balance. I actually roughly used the thirds diagonally, framing the predominant, black foreground as about 40% of the image, and letting the rest take care of itself. I could have tilted the camera up and included more sky, balancing everything a little better, maybe. The sky, though, drastically lost appeal above what is shown here. I know this is a big caption, but sometimes a would-be, easy shot can be really difficult. I should show the whole scene and this side by side to show what I mean. It's funny to analyze a photo that really isn't that spectacular, but any shot has many options.
some of the pages I did for the journal swap......these are the artsy ones I put in the book.. I borrowed some page ideas from different site sI ran across
The composition rules used to make this image more attractive and interesting is the "The Rule of Thirds".
I purposely edited the image so the bird is in the right bottom corner of the picture.
Also I tried to crop every other element that in my opinion was distractive. I left my main and only focal point on its own in the picture so the viewer doesn't get distracted with anything else.
