Top 5 Bestish from 2020

While some of these are my best photos there are a few i cannot currently access due to not being able to turn on my desktop computer at the moment. Please enjoy.

This photo was taken at the top of a tree I climbed, on Easter. I had no where else to go so i went to a popular hiking area just before sunset and got a majority of photos for this post, I am pretty proud of all of them. The one above displays orange moss on a large branch with the sun displayed in the background.

This pretty plant lies just below the branch above. I love the translucence of the leaves showing the shadows and light of its surroundings. Also showing of a nice use of depth of field and the rule of thirds. I also love the colors in the photo, the green of the plant sets it apart from the rest of the image.

Taken at the very peak of the tree, was this glorious landscape. a lens flare the sun on the rule of thirds and the contrast of the sky and ground all come together to cohesively form a beautiful photo. Where this photo slightly falls short is that the horizon is slight of center but also not on the rule of thirds, still a nice photo that I really enjoy.

I love this photo, it shows so many amazing qualities. The rule of thirds, leading lines and an amazing use of lighting and a water bottle. Though this photo does have its faults, a reflection of other cars in the chrome and just barely being able to tell that the camera is reflected off of the Chevrolet logo. Other than that I love this photo.

This photo is definitely the worst of the 5, though it still does have some nicer qualities. The gradient in the sky, the sun on the clouds, and the outline of the bird. Though the photo lacks focus and true composure. With a different lens I might have been able to better capture the moment.

Portraits

1-2-3 attempt
1-2-2

I’ve never been great at taking portraits of people, especially when models aren’t completely comfortable being photographed but, I did enjoy going through some of these photos and noticing small things that attract an eye to a photo of someone they’ve never met. Unfortunately this session was rushed and i couldn’t accomplish everything that I set out to do. Hopefully in the future I can try something like this again and find success.

This is Audra, shes beautiful. below is the original photo. taken out was a bra strap and some background distractions that took away from her beauty. We used to date, I know go me right? while we may no longer be dating she’s just as amazing as ever and I wish her the best.

Now I’m not here to talk about previous relationships so lets get into some technique talk. Below is a photo that I really like while it may not show off the 1-2-3 technique for posing woman is is a great example of 1-2-2. Every photo on this post also shows some amount of the rule of thirds.

This is Sam, a very good friend of mine. Below is the original photo and above is the small edit, I fixed the horizon and some small blemishes on Sam’s face. While fixing the horizon i had to extend Sam’s jacket to keep the same aspect ratio of the original photo, the final out come is quite nice i believe.
