Composition, composition, composition!

Not only do I LOVE Black & White photography, I LOVE when a photo composition is a lil asymmetrical.  I think the "rule of thirds" is a fantastic guideline to learn for photography.  I think it can bring a more dynamic effect to a photo--than having the object squarely in the middle ((BORING!!))  I love these types of lilies, they remind me of Easter. Happy Composition!

Black & White.

I LOVE Black & White photography. I think it is simply divine, because sometimes I think color can be so distracting from the image itself.  Take for instance, this orchid....  I love the true black and whitest white, with the range of greys.  If you have those three {shades} elements, then you're set! {Thank you to my college photo teacher, for teaching me that.}

A Rose by any other name...

I would want a rose garden, just to have roses like this ALL the time!
