This was a cold morning at Loch Clair near Kinlochewe in Scotland. At first, I was trying to avoid the twigs in the foreground, but then I tried to use them as foreground. Always need to have something in the foreground they say. I tried to get lower to make the space between the grass and twigs smaller, but it made everything else swish together too. The critique on this photograph from our instructor, Bruce Percy, was to get lower too. He quickly created a layer, moved the top down, and used a healing brush to make it look like that’s the way it was. He said, he’d never do that, and another photography said, “that’s not photography”. Which is the great debate, where do you draw the line? I prefer the first picture :)
