Things In A Frame

Night TA III

I like this picture. Of course, I like the car and I like the light but I like it as a picture. Part of this has to do with the particular framing. Pictures have borders.

Look from the bottom right to the top left. Can you see the motion? Look at the door opened towards you. Does it beckon you in? Look at the hood scoop and air cleaner. They are at rest in the frame. I don't think I can analyse everything that is going on here but it is a picture I would describe as comfortable in its frame. Your pictures should be comfortable in their frames unless discomfort is the feeling you are trying to convey.
