photographer

you can learn a lot by perusing photographer Jeremy Cowart's portfolio online.

Its a great lesson in composition. puzzle over why these are so strong. a few hints: look for negative space, point of view, and balance.

I'm sure theres lots to learn about photography here too. but i'm too busy trying to learn those myself to divulge them here. maybe somebody can enlighten me.
