Composition Lesson #8
Guess what? You don't have to show the whole thing!
It's only natural to try and show (paint,photograph,render) an entire structure… no matter how large, wide, or tall it might be. If we see a large building, tower, mountain, etc, we try our best to get the whole thing in the image. This often means we have missed a better aspect-ratio composition than what we are showing.
I'm sure you've noticed I often crop-in close to my subject matter. I looked at dozens of paintings and photographs of the Eiffel Tower and noticed that every single one showed the entire height of the structure. I don't have a problem with that since the height is quite impressive and distinct. When I closely inspected and gave some thought to the tower, it's incredible four-footed base popped-out for admiration!
Here, enjoy the Eiffel Tower from a different viewpoint.
The Alpha & Omega Suite is a musical commentary about what God has revealed through His established and time-honored written Word. It emphasizes important aspects of what has been shown throughout scripture. It took nine years to compose, arrange and record. It consists of thirty five parts which span two hours and forty minutes.
