Framing Your Subject

A nice capture of a couple dressed in period costume on a railway station. You have managed to capture an unusual viewpoint of the subject making a frame within a frame. The leading lines of the table also add to the subjects composition. I like the subdued interior of the carriage in contrast to the brightly lit platform. I can only imagine that your position was in an adjacent carriage or on the opposite platform. I like the mirror pose of the subjects adding to the symmetry. Well done and congratulations on making my top ten selection.

A wonderful portrait of a dog framed in a vehicle window. The head is very sharp and perfectly positioned. The image is full of an analogous color scheme making it a very harmonious image. I like the contrast between the head and the body. The framing is subtle but important and does not overwhelm the image, it adds to the story. A very intense expression tops off a wonderful image. Congratulations on making my top ten selection.

A very impressive image of an iconic waterfall. I fully appreciate your effort to try to get a different viewpoint of this much photographed waterfall. At 210 megapixels this image would show its true majesty in printed form. The cave has an interesting texture of lichen associated with its wet environment. I really feel that I am standing there viewing this impressive scene. Congratulations on being my number one selection.

With the viewpoint at floor level you have managed a capture an almost perfect symmetrical image. Black and white is a good choice for this image with no color distractions. I like the central position of the cyclist creating a pleasing, harmonious composition. Well done and congratulations on making my top ten selection.
