Here we go again Diagonals for assingment

[Nikkie]

Like I said this assignment is a composition I now have ROT and leading lines I fully understand and will be able to that with no help but the other part of the assignment is for rhythm, diagonals, contrast or Geometric my choice of these 3 but been creative will add a little extra if you know what I mean in this photo I see about 6 or so diagonals as part of the over all photo have a look any advice is muchly appreciated thank you again

Hey, good shot here.

The top part looks good, the rhs is ok.

Maybe a liitle could be cropped off the lhs. Maybe up to where the tree branches start.

The bottom edge looks like it is cut off a little bit. It's always a good idea not to put important things too close to the edge of a picture. The left end of that bottom horizontal piece of wood looks too close to the edge.

This is just my opinion. Other people will perhaps give you different suggestions.

Thumbs up for Diagonals. Looks good. Tick that assignment off!!

Looks pretty good to me too - and you have repetition and geometric covered as well

(You have found a good mentor in Charles)

You may care to have a look at the links below for a few more ideas.

Good luck - (how's the weather at the coast? Hope to be coming down again next week)

Alan thanks for dropping by good to see you well the weather here has not been the best for the past 3 weeks you see my original photo of my diagonal stairs that's the cloud we have been having some days we might start off in the morning with sun but by lunch time its where did the sun go but its getting warmer now this was taken in Narooma not sure if you go that far its where the seals are if you have not been there you should go a little bit further wild seals worth the extra ks thank you for your reply s and your links I was thinking this for Geometric its hard because you can never be sure what the teacher may be looking for but I can only do my best but having others advice and opinions always is a big help thanks again guys well you get a little break from me have to take of in the morning for a family emergency I should be able to get contrast and leading line's out west where were going so hopefully Ill be back to annoy you all with some new stuff for you good people to give me advice Anyway this is what I was thinking for Geo

Sandy, your diagonals edit is pretty good, but you have chopped the top off a bit much.

Here is an edit. Notice I've straightened the verticals a bit.

[Nikkie]

thank you to the rescue again Charles yes I can see the difference I guess Ill learn in time

[sejac]

The roof shot is interesting. I feel that a shot like this is better if it's really symetrical. Others may disagree.

Her, I had a quick play. Don't know if it's an improvement. Just food for thought.

[Nikkie]

Charles Yes I agree I could not get into the right spot because it was roped off so I just learned over the best I could one of my rules never jump the fence so to speak but I can't do any PP on it at only cropping and resizing is all that is allowed but I will go back when I come back and see if I can find somebody to gain permission even if they watch me as its inside a church so here's hoping they will let me jump the rope but thanks again

No wonder I don't do a photography course, I'd be hopeless.

[Isac]

[Glyn]

[Nikkie]
