Description

There are no rules for good photographs, there are only good photographs — Ansel Adams Eventually I reached the end of what I wanted to say about compositions. One rule is not mentioned, and I want to emphasize that rule concluding this series. This rule is: break the rules when necessary!!! Never let your creativity be restrained by lifeless rules, but always give way to your creativity, because it's you who's shooting, and every shot is an unique signature of yourself! Do you want to learn more about composition? There are many websites showing the way, a good start for example can be found at http://photoinf.com explaining composition far better than I can do that. Above all, have fun shooting and give way to your creativity, exploring your boundaries, and post them here so we can all learn from your acquired insights! Thank you so much for your serious attention and your encouraging comments in this triptych! I want to express my deep appreciation for your reactions because they have been very valuable! Enjoy your Sunday! Minolta X-700 (Agfa CT 100, 150 mm)

another breathtaking capture, Jan-Carel!!!! spectacular scenery!!! I can only imagine seeing things like this in person...to be there and feel the wind rush thru me, to feel the dizzying heights...sigh...but at least i have your gallery to see all these incredible visions!!! and yeah...ya know Jan-Carel, i so rarely think about rules. i just go with what's in my heart. fantastic series...and i think this "rule" about breaking the rules is the most important...at least for me! :)

I agree...know the rules -- then break them! I really like this one, how the foreground and background are almost like 2 different images, joined by the sinous central line. A wonderful closer to this series!
