Number 3 in a series of 7 “one-shot” PaDs intended to sharpen my eye during composition and to encourage thoughtful and considered exposure settings.
The main thing I learned today was what a pain the painting on the wall turned out to be. I felt it had to burned out. I give myself a C minus for my lack of great success there. And my composition didn’t really get all the color and the drama of another Willmore book plus the Starbucks. However I felt a tight crop was much stronger than the longer view. See the original below. To its right is my “alternate” SP.
The real story is that two of Ben Willmore’s books came last evening. I was so impressed by his one-day NAPP seminar last November, that I decided to pursue more good ideas from him. This book I’m holding is beautifully done in layout and color, and it has already answered questions for me that I didn’t know I had. ;-)
