[QUOTE="TerryMiller, post: 3481496, member: 7900"] Thank you. I grew up "at the knee" of a self-taught artist. My mother painted for many years and later taught others to do the same, mostly in oil paints. I guess I "acquired" my ability to compose a photo by seeing what she painted and what she used as a study for creating the paintings. I even got to the point of critiquing some of her newer paintings, looking for errors, which probably helped me as well in my learning process. I remember pointing out to her that while she had snow on the base of a tree trunk, there was no corresponding reflection in the water in front of the tree. It never took her long to correct any errors that I found. [/QUOTE]
