Advertisement Posted November 4, 2023 Posted November 4, 2023 Hi mikozia, Take a look here Bird on water. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
jaapv Posted November 4, 2023 Share #2 Posted November 4, 2023 Well exposed, nicely sharp, nice reflections. But, the bird is far too small. It should be prominent, now the viewer has to search for it in the busy fore- and background. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikozia Posted November 4, 2023 Author Share #3 Posted November 4, 2023 Thank you for your comment. Maybe this crop is more appropriate for the title. Welcome, dear visitor!

jaapv Posted November 5, 2023 Share #4 Posted November 5, 2023 Already better, but the horizontals in the water and the nice diagonals of the treetrunk are much more important for the impact of the composition than that salad bowl of amorphous foliage. So it must be a horizontal composition: Always analyze the key components of the image to create your composition. In this case the horizontals create the impact, the diagonals create a lead-in for the bird which interestedly has a counter-diagonal* and provides a resting place for the eye. Observe that I used the rule of thirds both horizontally and vertically *and the reflection of the bird provides an echo of the reflection of the treetrunk. Welcome, dear visitor!

jaapv Posted November 5, 2023 Share #5 Posted November 5, 2023 Next time bring a tele-zoom . It is something we all had to train ourselves out of. When we see something of interest the human mind zooms in on it and loses the "irrelevant" surroundings, We forget that the camera has no such automatic system and press the shutter, rendering our subject far too small and insignificant.
