I think you could work on your composition and framing a bit. Some of those park photos look a bit flat, with you cutting off pathways, it’s hard to tell what your subject is. In the other photos, your framing includes objects on the sides that draw attention away from what looks to be your subject and makes me question what your subject is. For example the photo with the squirrel - with the tree on the left, it draws attention away from the squirrel - unless the tree was your subject, in which case the rock/squirrel would be the distraction. I’d also suggest keeping your horizon straight when taking landscapes, it’s a small correction but has a big effect. And for pictures of trees, try getting low and angling up to get more of the branches, or simply backing up. Just some food for thought.
Thanks for your comment, Joshs. You see, everyone has their own way of seeing and representing the world around them, and this is mine. Others may like it or not, but I assure you that I take care of my shots based on what I want to capture with my personal sensitivity. This explains why I shoot a tree, in which I want a pointed tower to appear behind the branches against the foggy background. So the sequoias, I'm not interested in showing how tall they are, I want to show the strength with which they are firmly anchored to the ground, or the squirrel that is thinking of leaping onto the nearby tree. They are little stories, short stories, but they are mine. This interests me. If we all followed the same rule for representing things, the world would perhaps be more boring, don't you think? I agree with you about the crooked horizon, I may have missed it, but I'm having trouble finding it. Can you kindly point it out to me? Thank you for your time.
Lovd it. Particularly as the photos look so analogue.
thank you so much|
Bellisime foto!!!
