These photos are for this composition course, which I'm doing online with some friends.

I thought the multi-colored "signs" next to the tracks were interesting. Or maybe it was the reflection of the stadium. Too much distraction, though.

Repetition

Made this for going back to school, and I used Japanese fabric. Take a cheap .50 cent composition notebook and make it fabulous.

See where this picture was taken. [?]

This picture meets the goals of the assignment because the window is framing the canisters. It focuses mainly on framing more so than it focuses on composition. One strength I think this photo has is that the canisters are pretty centered on the window frame, and I was able to get all of them into the photo, while getting most of the frame in as well. A weakness I think this photo has is a lack of a focal point-the picture doesn't focus on one specific canister. I was able to crop out some of the excess, unneeded part of the original picture; however, I also wish I could have cropped out the bottom left corner of the photo some more, or aimed the camera a little higher to get the counter top out of the photo entirely. To take this photo, I knelt down a bit and aimed the camera at an angle so that I wouldn't get the canisters directly and straight on. I took this photo at night so that the light from the sun wouldn't stream into the window, possibly causing the canisters in the photo to look washed or flushed out.

Rushed...leaf should be on the "rule of thirds" grid intersection to make this a better shot.

Composition taken for Week 27 'Sun Flares’, a theme devised by the Compositionally Challenged Group.

One of 700 photos taken of the sun shining through gaps in the foliage of a Copper Beech tree. It took a lot of shots to capture the light while the wind moved the leaves.

F8 is rubbish for sun flares - but the gaps in the leaves were oscillating between F0 and F100 I reckon. They certainly did a good job.
