WANDERING EYE...03.27.16

March 30, 2016

I've slowed myself down almost to a crawl, I brought home only 27 frames from Sunday's sunrise shoot at Makapuu Beach Park. I've also noticed that I'm seeing & being more critical of my composition,  especially the leading lines that will draw my viewers into the image. It's also been more frustrating as I can't seem to see the composition at first with my eyes or the camera. So I'll move again & again & again until I can find the right composition.

I'm hoping that this will improve my overall style of photography. I'm starting to feel that I don't need to capture the rising sun within my frame, it's more about the composition & light...EVOLUTION is a good thing!

Aloha a hui hou my friends!
