Photography Composition

Use Diagonals

The stove images draws you from the bottom left hand corner and forward toward the knife set, the image is pulling your eyes to the knife set from the corner.  The stairs use some diagonals, but are kind of all over the place, creating a sense of movement with some diagonal properties.

Creativity with Colors

These are just abstract quick shots that make the colors interesting.  It is probably pretty obvious where these shots were taken, but you still have an obsession to look at the colors even if you know what it is.

Leading Lines

These also have a lot of lines going on.  The street image has leading lines with the telephone cables, but also from the reflection of colors that lead back to the original source. This also has movement that makes your eye go around the picture.

Simplify the Scene

This is my attempt to take an ordinary item and make it interesting with zoom and angle.  Not typically the perspective you see these sorts of items and being this close.

Fill the Frame

These are two images that use the entire shot to try to tell the story, the black and white is a picture meant for a calming scene, with some movement of the trees descending down from left to right.  The demolished structure leads you around the picture looking at what could have possibly been there and what is left.
