Get Ready To Rumble by Timothy Poulton

Think of a landscape photograph as a jigsaw puzzle, with dozens of different pieces demanding your attention. If you arrange all those pieces in the right order you’ll end up with an organised, structured image that makes sense and looks good. But if you put them together any old way, the end result will be a muddled mess of shapes, colours and details that’s difficult to make sense of. That, in a nutshell, is what composition’s all about – arranging the elements of a scene in your camera’s viewfinder so they form something visually interesting to look at; something that will hold the attention of the viewer and take their eye on a journey around the frame from the immediate foreground to the distant background. Shooting panoramic images is significantly more difficult because you have to apply this technique over multiple images without the final image in the viewfinder for reference. Personally I’ve been sitting on this image for over a year because it just didn’t feel right, love to get your opinion.
