This Winnie the Pooh statue is in a garden in my parents garden. The first picture with the statue centered highlights pooh and very little else. Though this garden is much larger. This garden is a memorial garden that my parents have been growing in memory of my sister who passed away 10 years ago. As I change the focus of the picture to move pooh to the left 1/3 of the frame you can see more of what is in the garden and the other statue that is there. You can see more color and some of the other elements in the garden.
What a cute statue. I actually love the first picture, he's framed by the leaves. I would like to see a picture of the statue from the side, such that you got Pooh's profile and could see the angel in the distance.
ReplyDeleteNice subject. I agree with Paige that the leaves frame the first picture. I kind of wish that the Angel wasn't in the second picture, because it draws the focus away from Pooh because it's brighter.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Hanna, but I think you captured the rule of thirds well. I probably would have double dipped and used the first picture to represent framing though.
ReplyDeleteThe rule of thirds is tricky. I like how you captured the garden sculpture in the first picture. In the second shot you have Pooh as the rule of third, but the other statue takes away from Pooh. If you were to get a little closer so that they other statue isn't shown in the photo, it would make him more dominate. Great ideas though!

ReplyDeleteI think all of the comments here tell you everything that I could tell you. Thank you all for seeing exactly what could be used to improve the photographs. When photographing a scene with multiple elements, it is always good to put one in the foreground as your most important or in a position that is going to make it prominent. So, as Paige mentioned, maybe coming at an angle to take the photograph and putting one of the statues in the foreground would work better.
