TAKING PORTRAITS

Another instruction of our photography-teachers was to make 12 portraits of random or chosen peoples. All, except the last two photos, I 've taken in Barton on Sea. I like the 5th picture the most, because I think the composition of this photo is quite nice. Most of the photos look nice if you take them in the rule of thirds: Imagine the scene divided into thirds - both horizontally and vartically. This picture follows the rule of thirds. 

4 squares of the image are only 'looking space'. In this space there are no important things or persons. The man is only in the first column and the ground appears only in the third row. The golden ratio is used to get a harmonious picture construction. 

I've tried to take all the pictures by following the rule of thirds, but for example the 2nd picture is not so nice. Next time I also have to get closer to the objects and be carefull with the lightning
