A second look at photographic composition:
On Perspective and Horizon by Michael Doyle A good clean background Focuses the attention When aptly found These photos are worthy of retention Layered photographs have their place But cleaner is best to embrace When a beginner wants to be read well Gradually adding in just the right detail Fog and smoke do just the trick When you need something to add a kick Popping the subject out to be seen Whether its mountains or a human being Adding drama by blocking the sun Completes the picture if not overdone Building pictures from the background forward Helps to capture what you're looking toward Truly to get the most satisfaction It's best to be rid of distraction The subject is the best of the story Best worked out well to the photographer's glory Changing the perspective is a big deal It's the best way of changing the details Try all the angles from high to low You just never know until you know It's all in the way of looking That makes for photographic cooking The horizon line truly matters As to if your story sings or shatters (c) May 11, 2020 Michael Doyle All Rights Reserved
