Homework Composition from Lesson 9. | Fashion Photos | Photo Forum

I’m trying very hard to figure out what the second photo is all about.
Don’t tell us yet as we can make it a game.  (hope you remember.)

I was thinking Welder… but not very sure.
This is what I was able to see with Lightroom.

OK, mathias, let’s see if anyone else joins the guessing game.

As far as your cropping:  Composition is better thought of while taking the photo, but can be improved upon in post processing.  You did a good job on your photo of the two buildings… You certainly were thinking of the Rule of Thirds.  Both horizon lines as well as the buildings are dead on.

The monkey is also on a third line, although I might not have not cropped so much off the top (or bottom) so that the image was less elongated.  The fire shot doesn’t matter all that much as it’s not a presentable image anyway.  I like the composition of the two electric towers.  Again, it appears that you were concentrating on the rule of thirds.

There is much more to good composition other than this rule and you might want to try some of the other composition ideas that Oksana has talked about in her lessons.  You might also wish to work on better exposure.  Most of these photos are considerably underexposed.
