I really do a strange thing when I take photos ... a crop with my eyes. I rarely do any cropping post processsing. What you see is what I saw at the moment I took the photo. Just call me weird. I will accept it.
Fun photo, lot's of things going on from composition, color, depth of field, light contrast and etc.
I live and die by the theme KISS. (Keep It Simple Stupid). Tends to work out in photography as well. =)
This photo was taken with a few ND's stacked to be able to slow the shutter enough for the movement in the wheel. The side effects of this was an extremely pink/purple cast and some vingetting. Even with my greens pumped right up to the top on Lightroom the cast still effected the overall colours, but somehow, and somewhat luckily, for this shot I really like the 'filmy look' it's given it.
The photo was all about composition and I think I nailed it. I'm leaving all the vignetting and defects in to give it a more really realistic old film, "retro", look. (even though it was taken on a Nikon d90!)
Please let me know what you think!
Compositionally Challenged week 19 is Nature.
I find it interesting to watch the progress of the seasons on my weekly trips to visit my mother 90 miles to the south.
The most recent example is Rhodendrons: They started to bloom in Hillsboro two weeks ago, in Longview (where this was taken) a week ago, and in my garden today.
Compositionally Challenged Week 3 - Creative use of TEXTURES
This candle has a lot of texture, which I enhanced with a texture filter in post.

My favorite of all crystals, this is stibnite. It is a great specimen offered by a dealer in the TEP venue of the Tucson Rock and Gem Show this year. The entire piece is about 2 1/2" x 2". The blade formations stacked upon each other make for a natural composition in this macro view. The crystal is so dark, the "steel blue" shows as black and gray with flashes of blue as light hits it. This shot was taken in a tent outdoors, so the bit of light coming in sideways from 8 feet away helped to show the gleam and shine. Wish I'd had the funds to pick up this beauty!
It occurred to me that one of the areas of photography that I frequently bypass is the mid-range view in favor of either the "big picture" or the macro. Ironically, this is probably the most common perspective we take when focusing our eyes on the world around us...a conclusion verified by studying and evaluating my own sight orientation on my recent walks.
With the open areas in full bloom with succeeding varieties of wildflowers, it provides a good opportunity to actually concentrate on the various elements of compositon which actually go into a shot like this. Frankly, it takes a lot more thought than just firing off at the sky or the lake or the trees or moving in for a closeup. Perhaps that's why I don't do it very often...thinking an activity of increasing frustration in my dotage and reminiscent of work which is now anathema.
In any event, here for your consideration, a series of images which actually resulted from some conscious attempt at composition. I have taken more and cannot say that I find them very striking...personal preferences and taste obviously also impacting composition. A worthwhile and interesting exercise nonetheless, requiring much more practice.
If you look closely, particularly in the comment images, you will see an abundance of small skipper butterflies which made for pleasant companions.
Compositionally Challenged week 9 is Rule of Odds.

Regarding the award-winning physicist Dr. Elliot McGucken at Princeton University, the late John Archibald Wheeler stated, "More intellectual curiosity, versatility and yen for physics than Elliot McGucken's I have never seen in any senior or graduate student. . . Originality, powerful motivation, and a can-do spirit make me think that McGucken is a top bet."
Dr. E would go on to heal the blind with his NSF-funded, award-winning Ph.D. dissertation which also laid down the foundations of Light Time Dimension Theory. Over the years, LTD Theory added foundational *physical* postulates, principles, and equations en route to becoming numerous books, with this one forming the simple, illustrated introduction. My fine art photography (writing with light) graces the books!

Pieter Cornelis (Piet) Mondriaan was a Dutch painter and theoretician who is regarded as one of the greatest artists of the 20th century. He is known for being one of the pioneers of 20th century abstract art, as he changed his artistic direction from figurative painting to an increasingly abstract style, until he reached a point where his artistic vocabulary was reduced to simple geometric elements.
Mondrian's art was highly utopian and was concerned with a search for universal values and aesthetics. He proclaimed in 1914:
"Art is higher than reality and has no direct relation to reality. To approach the spiritual in art, one will make as little use as possible of reality, because reality is opposed to the spiritual. We find ourselves in the presence of an abstract art. Art should be above reality, otherwise it would have no value for man."
He was a contributor to the De Stijl art movement and group, which he co-founded with Theo van Doesburg.
