Emily, Thanks for your comments. I may try your suggestion in Photoshop and see what I can do. But sometimes you have to accept nature for what it is and I thought I was lucky to be able to get this angle without the other distractions in the area. It did put the tree in the upper right corner where my teacher says it the strongest point. Still, your idea sounds interesting. Thanks again for your input. I appreciate it muchly. peace, rand ----- Original Message ----- | > Rand Flory - The Tree | | Yeah. Negative space. It's negativity is exaggerated by the way | the tree and hill are moving away from it. I wonder whether | the same situation but with the tree on the far left and the hill | continuing up would have given some energy to the space. | The angle of the tree and rise of the hill robs the space of all life. | We read from left to right.... |
