After laboring on the streets for challenge #2 I’m only glad to move on to challenge #3 with the subject of water and the assignment of exploring vertical and horizontal orientation.
Using the right orientation for your photos is actually a very pragmatic tip to keep in mind because it can help convey the message more effectively. On thinking about it, I realized I have a strong bias for horizontal pictures, as evidenced by those I use on this blog, but I’ve never really given it any thought until this course.
Remembering that I have a lot of pictures of water in my files and wanting to check if I had taken any vertical shots at all, I came up with this:
And then a horizontal version:
Both were taken at the same time, and obviously with the same subject: water my feet 🤣 (And between you and me, I think both orientations work just fine 😄).
Well what do you think of that? I learned something new about myself today – I really like my feet! I have more pictures of them, if you want. No? Okay, your loss 😄😋

I’m actually partial to hands. Although, feet are incredibly important!!!!!

It seems to me, so perhaps I can’t see beyond my own prejudices, that we tend to select horizontal for landscapes and vertical for most pictures of people. At least that pertains to the pictures I’ve framed and hung on my walls. Major exceptions would be waterfalls- vertical and groups of people – horizontal. Hmmm. I’m sure there’s some deep psychological truth there. What does your course say? 😂

I think you’re on to something. It says choosing the right orientation helps convey the message more effectively. I’ve not been sensitive about this prior to this lesson.

I love my feet, my husband loves them even more. He gets very aroused when I tease him with them. I sometimes make him kiss and suck them while he explodes.
Point is woman don’t know or think about the power of them.
Thanks
