I know it still has the horizon but the ground i was shooting at had trash all over the place (LOL  )airfrogusmc wrote in post #10566689 My question back to you is what was the motivation to shoot this? What are you trying to communicate? What are the important elements? A much wiser man than I am and one incredible photographer once taught me and I quote, "either everything in the frame is helping your visual statement or hurting it." Theres never anything just there. That would include making sure that your subject is placed somewhere in the frame that everything in the frame is supporting the placement. But what are you trying to say and why did you make the photograph? Is everything in the image supporting that? Remember basic elements of visual language like line, form, shape, color, and things like vanishing point and therefore placement of the horizon all become important elements in trying to communicate your vision. I would say in this case the sky and the boat are key so maybe to much foreground in this case. Not to be nitpicky, cause this is better that my landscapes I have taken, but listening to Allen and taking his advice, covering the bottom 1/4-1/3 really adds more of an impact to the sky. I would have probably tried getting in the foreground as you did, but looking at what Allen has pointed out I can see where the difference really changes the photo, and takes it from being good to really changing the image into one with more "oomph".
