54	Mar 19	Reply	I have a favorite personal illustration of your point, Brad. The original (street photography) image was a landscape, with a second figure on the right, and a bit of sidewalk beyond. I brought it to a workshop for critique by Lorne Resnick (a photographer/compositor I admire very much). He suggested this square crop with the man literally walking out of the frame. At first I disagreed, especially because the original conformed to the rule of thirds so well, but after consideration liked it so much that I now have it displayed on my kitchen doorway, as seen in the attached.

54	Mar 19	Reply	Thanks, Brad! I kept looking at the bird thinking I was missing something - and you've nailed it.	Mar 11th

54	Mar 19	Comment	Fabulous image! Very clean and powerful. Your placement of the Mono Lake fragment is perfect, with that star-sun right in position of his eye. The bright gold horizon contrasting with the black hills leads me right to the head. The silhouette of the rocks forms a great suggestion of his face. Personally, I might consider trimming a bit off the right, though I think your composition also works well.	Mar 2nd
54	Mar 19	Comment	A very lonely walk, indeed! I like your triad of subjects. The eagle seems to be calling something to the dejected man - mocking him? The spiky tree and the eagle's attitude definitely feel hostile to me. At first I thought the tree/eagle might be better placed a bit closer to the center, but after trying it I prefer your placement. The distance makes the man's walk that much more lonely. I might consider moving the man just a tad lower in the frame.	Mar 2nd
54	Mar 19	Comment	I love how your images always tell a story, Betty. I do wonder what they see. My eye goes over to the right of the image because that's where they are looking. It is very clever how the branches of the tree bring my eye back to the dog and the child. The dog fits in very naturally, both in position and lighting. I love its alert attitude. The child feels a touch bright to me for the available light.	Mar 2nd
54	Mar 19	Comment	I love the way you have used the bird of paradise flowers as alien missiles. They are so elegant and exotic that they do have an alien feel. The blue of the clouds contrast nicely with the orange flowers. It might have been interesting to warp or liquify the mother-ship a bit to differentiate it from the missiles and help identify it immediately as a ship.	Mar 2nd
