And when it come to arranging elements in a frame, many like to lean on lines to move the eye around the frame. I&#8217;m no different except for maybe, I look for curves more than straight lines. The problem with curves is, they are typically a line that brings the eye right back to where it started. That makes using curves a pain in the butt but when they work, a beautiful thing. Where&#8217;s the line? Huh .. a funny pun.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.moosepeterson.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Bandon-Beach-2649.jpg?quality=100\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.moosepeterson.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Bandon-Beach-2649.jpg?resize=800%2C534&#038;quality=100\" alt=\"Bandon Beach 2649\" width=\"800\" height=\"534\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-39595\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.moosepeterson.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Bandon-Beach-2649.jpg?w=800&amp;quality=100&amp;ssl=1 800w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.moosepeterson.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Bandon-Beach-2649.jpg?resize=585%2C390&amp;quality=100&amp;ssl=1 585w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.moosepeterson.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Bandon-Beach-2649.jpg?resize=300%2C200&amp;quality=100&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.moosepeterson.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Bandon-Beach-2649.jpg?resize=140%2C94&amp;quality=100&amp;ssl=1 140w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Cruising Brandon Beach in Or with the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bhphotovideo.com\/c\/product\/1082599-REG\/nikon_d750_dslr_camera_body.html\/BI\/8449\/KBID\/9350\/kw\/NID750\/DFF\/d10-v2-t1-xNID750\" target=\"_blank\">D750<\/a> \/ <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bhphotovideo.com\/c\/product\/918852-REG\/nikon_2207_af_s_nikkor_18_35mm_f_3_5_4_5g.html\/BI\/8449\/KBID\/9350\/kw\/NI183535GED\/DFF\/d10-v2-t1-xNI183535GED\" target=\"_blank\">18-35AFS<\/a>, there are lots of lines, most being real angular. But when you work the tide and the lines the water makes around the boulders, you find circles. How do I make the most of those circles? The first is to get REAL close to them, as in as physically close as I can be, within inches. At that distance, you gotta wide, as wide as possible. And when you go wide, you make even more of that curved line. Once that is established cause it will be the foreground, you gotta work the middle and background. If they aren&#8217;t working for you, the foreground falls apart. So in these two examples, the top photo has the middle and background and the bottom photo, doesn&#8217;t have the middle ground. Without that middle ground, no matter how nice the curve might be, the photograph isn&#8217;t. And when you&#8217;re looking through the viewfinder, how do YOU know when it works or doesn&#8217;t work? Look at those three planes, the foreground, middleground and background. If you see elements in each one that are strong, you&#8217;re good to go. If one is weak though, the whole photo will be weak. Easier said then done, but just something to ponder over.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lines, our eyes love lines in all their flavors and complexities.
