Taking your photos to the next level

There are a lot of interesting elements in this picture. The bold blocks of color at play; the light blue sky, the tan building on the left and the dense green landscape to the right. From the surrounding landscape you get a lot of texture as well. Another interesting aspect to this image is the pavement of the street, main subject is left central of the photo showing a small amount of foreground in front of subject with stationery cars. I assume it was done during a red traffic light, you gain an excellent textural feature to a photo. Make sure not to hold up traffic trying to get a good shot. It would be ideal to have three people assisting with this shot. The flowing pink cape depicts the wind conditions on that day telling somewhat of the story by visualizing the moment. Adding as many details into the photo as possible helps the viewer retain content. Take shots with and without a flash to find the best results, get a few shots while walking and being still.

This could very well be a lucky shot or someone aiming to choose just the right sunlight the perfect background and being able to adjust the camera to the right settings; it's totally fun. Don't buy your camera to misuse it. Show your photos some attention.

This is a lovely photo with the sun setting through the trees and the partial silhouette of a small puppy and the use of her yellow and black scarf is an example of what can happen when you look for a good shot. The scarf adds another color in the frame that offsets the browns and neutrals. The person taking this photo was at eye level with the subject and possibly in luck being able to capture the rays of the sun.
