Arwyn - Proportion

Before

After


I was trying to shoot Madison in the ridiculously tall grass in our backyard (I'm so busy taking pictures who has time to mow?).  I thought if she was laying in the grass, it would look more dramatic, so I took several shots like that.  Unfortunately, the light wasn't right, and it just didn't look very interesting.  I moved her into the shadows and had her sit, then just set up my camera and waited.  When she relaxed, I got the shot I really wanted.  I don't think it shows the perspective of the tall grass quite as strongly as I wanted, but I love the overall composition.

Before: ISO 100, f/14, 1/13s, AWB; After: ISO 100, f/5.6, 1/50s, AWB.
Both taken with my Canon Rebel XTi.
