A couple of weeks ago I had a photo of a simple line of a snow drift curving around a tree. Last week I attempted to photograph some shelves that had several bowls, and cook books. I didn't like the second photo, and asked for your suggestions on how to make the photo better. One of the things that some of you said was make the shelves less cluttered. (or simple). This has me wondering if it is possible to take good photos of very busy photos (chaotic), or I should say what makes a good chaotic photo? I don't know the answer yet. I think of my children's "I Spy" books, and the photographs are beautiful and very busy, but not chaotic.
This is another chaotic photo. I like it a little better than the shelves photo, but it's still not quite right. I think I should have tried from a different angle.
What do you think? Is it possible to take a good chaotic photo? Do you have any examples?
Lessons Learned:
- Experimenting is a lot of fun, and can be a learning experience. Other times it can be frustrating. Sometimes the lesson is, this method didn't work.
Photo details: Exposure time 1/25 sec, Aperture f/5.7, ISO 100, Focal Length 17 mm, Lens Canon EF 17-40mm, handheld.
