I think it needs a primary element. I'd try getting low on the near side of the larger boulder, dialing in a small aperture and shooting the boulder to right of center and include a bit of water on the left. Available texture would be important on the boulder. It needs an anchor and that boulder would seem to be it.(?)
Jack P.S.: Toss those few "too close" brown sticks that will appear to the near center of your shot. ----- Original Message ----- From: "steve harley" <p...@paper-ape.com> To: pdml@pdml.net Sent: Monday, April 28, 2014 7:08:51 AM Subject: Re: Seeking advice on a shot On Sun, Apr 27, 2014, at 3:04, Larry Colen wrote: > 870, 872 and 875 in this set: > http://www.flickriver.com/photos/ellarsee/sets/72157644355302375/ the waterfall itself, from what i can see, seems unphotogenic, but i like the abstractness of the pondscum/bubbles; i am looking on a small screen so perhaps there is detail that would change my opinion, but my instinct would be to look for angles that diminish the distraction of the branches, reflections, etc. and make the most of the abstract geometry and subtle shading -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
