I'm back!

Better late than never!
About 2 months ago I started on another design module; but this time round, photography was the focus. So without any more delays, I'll go straight into the first class assignment.

Let me first talk about this photo, the grand prize winner of the Smithsonian magazine annual photo contest.


1. Lighting
Beautiful use of light and excellent control. This photo has a wide dynamic range

2. Composition
You would think that this photo consists of 2 scenes but what happened is that the photographer cleverly used the tree to separate it.

3. Subject
You immediately know that this is about fishing. But it gives you a deeper insight into the practice of it in China, from the traditional costume the woman is wearing to the boats.
