Jason Tag Photography

Looking back at a few images I saw this one.

This was a shot that I thought was interesting when I took it. but when I looked at a day later I didn’t like it. Now I like it. I don’t know why I’m flip-flopping like this but I think my initial reaction had more to do with the fact that I didn’t get any different angles of this pose. I just got one shot. What this image teaches me is get as many different angles as you can of a particular setup. When I look at it I see an interesting shot from her arm looking down to wards her feet. that might have been interesting. or looking up at her face from her knees. Of course hindsight is 20/20.

I like it now because the background dominates the model. My eyes are drawn to the branches and the leaves rather than the model. Which basically forces you to look at the image differently, to see the whole picture.  And that’s why I like it now.
