Week 10: Horizontal Lines

Well, not always. This week, our project focuses on horizontal lines.  The looooong stairwell to the beach has more horizontal lines than I could count.  The  climb perplexed young B. as well.

This post of is part of a  project with 17 wonderful photographers. See their interpretations of this theme HERE.

Week 9: Lines

This week marks a new monthly theme for the blog circle: lines of all sorts. Leading, horizontal, vertical, diagonal…  I’m kicking it off with an image that incorporates leading lines, taken during our lovely weekend vacation on the coast, when we went out to dinner at a very popular seafood restaurant. After waiting outside for almost an hour, we were excited to get inside and see what all the fuss was about.

Week 8: Balance, finale

This is the final week of exploring balance in our compositions. This post of is part of a blog project with 17 wonderful photographers. See their interpretation of this assignment HERE.

Week 7: Balance, using negative space

This week’s challenge is to balance the subject of the photo, using negative space.  During this trip to the bike park, B. is surrounded by the “negative space” of a vast warehouse of bike track. This post of is part of a blog project with 17 wonderful photographers.

Week Six: Balance, continued

We continue to explore compositional balance: this week, using an object to balance the primary subject. This post of is part of a blog project with 17 wonderful photographers. See their interpretation of this assignment HERE.

Week Five: Balance, with a Person as the Primary Subject

This week’s compositional goal was to balance my primary subject with another person in the photo.  As twins, Sid and Nico are often yin to the other’s yang.  This post of is part of a blog project with 17 wonderful photographers. See their interpretation of this assignment HERE.

Week Four: Geometric Shapes for Framing, Repetition, Balance

This post of is part of a blog project with 17 other wonderful photographers. See their work HERE.

Week Three: Balancing with Geometry

This week’s theme is to balance my principal subject with a geometrical shape… in this case, the triangular frame of the swing set.  This blog is part of an exploratory project with 17 wonderful photographers and friends called Who We Become. Please click here to see their interpretations.

Week Two: Environmental geometry

This week’s theme involves using repeated geometric shapes as a key compositional element in an image… and behold, we have B. and Nana at the bookstore, full of rectangles as far as the eye can see.  This post is part of an exploratory photo project with 17 wonderful, talented photographers and friends called Who We Become.  Please click here to see other interpretations of this theme.

Week One: Composition within a geometric frame

P52, Take Two.  I’m thrilled to be more actively joining the same group of wonderful photographers and dear friends, as they embark on a NEW Project 52. This time, the theme is composition. This week, we’re framing our subjects within geometric shapes.  Please click here to see how the group interpreted this theme.
