Day Two

Today, we went back to the basics and talked about the most easily understood, yet also one of the most helpful ways to make photos look better. Today our topic was the Rule of Thirds and the students used this to quickly make more sophisticated photographs.

Yvonne has done very nicely to move the pigeon out past the rule of thirds point, giving it lots of room to look into the middle of the picture.

Susan got up really close to get this shot of a pigeon. Again, she did well to keep the eyes out of the middle of the photo.

Lauren got a classic shot, along with a nice reflection of a Black Crowned Night Heron.

Kerrianne got in nice and tight to get this action shot of a brown squirrel.

Lush, lovely colors and a group of turtles here in Kailynne's photo here.

Jim did a great job to get a nice, very sharp photo of a Black Crowned Night Heron.

Not only did Celine get the goose closest to us on one of the Rule of Thirds points, but she also managed to get the two Little Egrets on the opposite point as well.

Ben has done a great job of putting the goose just where it works best in his photo.

Annie not only did very well in using the rule of thirds very effectively, but she also used another topic we covered today to perfection. There are tons of effective negative space in her photo.
