Barn Quilts

I am back online and have a lot of pictures to share.  Autumn is our travel month and we spent some time in Illinois and Wisconsin.  Over the next few weeks I will be sharing some of my favorite pictures.

Down the winding roads of Door County Wisconsin,

 I found these barns scattered among the farms.  

The photos are bit blurry 

because some were taken as we drove by.  

I like the colors of the quilt squares on the barns.

 I love this old rickety barn. 

 It looks like it has been there for awhile.

Here is a crazy quilt square.

I Googled Barn Quilts and they have actual trails that you can follow and find all these colorful pieces of art.  

You may have some near you

Thanks for stopping by!

Have a blessed day!

Leading Lines

The Rule of Thirds is a good guide to use when taking your pictures. Now let's add another

element to the composition of the photograph.

 LINES

When we look at a photo our eye is naturally drawn along lines. By thinking about how you place lines in your composition, you can affect the way we view the image, pulling us into the picture, towards the subject, or on a journey 'through' the scene.




I love this photo my son took of my hubby and I walking over the bridge.

Use converging lines to draw the
viewer into the cute couple holding hands.



The conveyor belt tells the story in this picture.



The bridge draws your eye across the river.

Horizons should generally not be placed in the middle of your frame. This leaves an image feeling unsettled compositionally. A much more effective technique is to place them in the upper or lower third of your frame.
