Title: Returning to familiar places
Post by: Paulo Bizarro on November 01, 2019, 07:15:22 am

A new article in my blog:

About how to challenge ourselves when returning to familiar places.

Regards.

Nice post and nice photos. I often return to places I have been before. Frequently it is out of convenience, but the challenge is always there to outdo my previous efforts or at least overcome the unique challenges of each visit.

I really like the second arch photo in your blog post. That one stands above the rest (which are all quite nice too).

Yes! My only nit to pick is the cut off red vegetation at the bottom. It would look better either in our out of the shot entirely.

The red vegetation completes the composition. However you could warp the bottom vegetation to clean up the angles. Or alternatively perspective shift, as if you were using a T/S lens.

In my opinion this is your strongest shot/comp of the set.
