Pixel Perfect: Lesson 1 - Fundamentals of Composition Homework

This is my homework for the first Pixel Perfect lesson.

We are learning all about composition this time so I decided to take a field trip and do some nature shots :)

I came across these pretty high grasses and loved how their vivid green contrasted with the sky. I decided to keep it really simple and fill the frame with these two elements (grass + sky), using the top of the grass as a line to divide the image into two contrasting halves.

For my second image, I focussed on the top of a small post. I try to fill the frame with my subject and use a shallow depth of field to try to avoid viewers getting distracted by the busy background.
