My homework for Photo this weekend is to bring a shot that you took. Sounds pretty elementary for me. Roll Eyes

I really didn't have any shots that would look good in an "art" setting so I was looking around for something to shoot when I saw this trailer filled with hay. Looked cool. Craig suggested that I try it with a sunset, which I will try this evening.

I would love to give some hints on the shot, but then, it'd be MY homework if you took my advice........ 8)

All you need to do in any good image, is to satisfy yourself with the best you can come up with .......nice subject BTW !

Very nice James. I'm not qualified to offer advice on composition & then it would be my homework as Ken pointed out. You might like to take a few shots from different angles & distance & pick out the best one. That's the big advantage of digital photography. Wink

Well I don't think it'd only be your homework if you took the shot. I mean, my dad helps me with my math homework, but he's not doing it. Roll Eyes

Thanks for the comments though.

That's true but as I said, I'm not qualified to give advice. Don't tell anyone but some of the best shots I've ever taken happened by pure accident. Lips Sealed
