Towards the Peninsula

GRD, f5, 1/1400, ISO 400, JPG

Took this picture on my way home. I really liked the contrast between her red jacket and the black wall behind her. Also her attitude and confident walk made it a great scene. I slowed down to be able to take this picture. It was a shot from the hip without looking at the camera but it did come out almost as I wanted it.

  1. Great! Really a master hip-shot. The lines are really cool.

  2. Her walk together with the angles and slope of the road gives dynamism to the picture

  3. Thanks for your comments, it was the lines that made me choose this picture. I saw a different composition at first but this is better than this.

  4. Very good perspective and the lines form the composition very well.

  5. Thanks Wouter, I like using lines in pictures if the opportunity is there and cropping this to 3:2 resulted in better use of the lines.
