The main focus of this picture is the sun peaking through the branches making light the main theme and focal point. The brightness of the sun contrasts with the darkness of the branches. This makes the light of the sun the main object of the picture. The trees frame the center of the picture making the focal point stronger. The darkness of the trees on top and on bottom creates an oreo effect. The top tree is in the foreground and the bottom tree is in the background. This shows the depth of the picture. I believe this picture is good because the contrast between light dark and gray is very strong; it’s the best of all three worlds. If I could change one thing about this picture I would have left it in color but since this is a black and white gallery that is not an option. Next time I will start taking pictures the day its assigned so that I have lots of pictures to choose from. I really like this picture but I always want to make sure the picture I use is a picture I love and not something I’m just settling for. Patrick Stokoe
