Hi everyone!!!
It felt like it was time to freshen up the branding of my photography business so I have created new social media profiles to mark what feels like a fresh start.
WELCOME to my new twitter account!

Refresh: Rule of Thirds
Photo: Yvonne Roberts
This is a great image to end our Refresh Sharing Series. It encompasses many aspects of creative composition including the rule of thirds, natural lines and framing, captured as 'The Ribble' makes it way through Dobson's Locks.

We hope you have enjoyed seeing some of the images we captured during the production of the Refresh Course.
And if you are feeling inspired, why not check out our new photography experience: FLOAT beginning in August 2022.

Refresh: Rule of Thirds
The focal point of this image is highlighted due to its position being in the left third of the frame and also by being very sharp and in focus. The soft focus of the reeds on the opposite side of the frame creates balance and depth.

Refresh: Rule of Thirds
Captured at Dobson Locks, the main subject is placed in the left third of the frame and directs the viewers eyes across the centre line into the right side of the frame. The soft focus of the background creates balance and depth within the image.

Captured by the side of the canal, this is a perfect example of an image using the Rule of Thirds. The focal point is clearly offset to the left of the frame with the other side left simple and uncluttered.

Care residents will have the opportunity to be a virtual canal Boat Skipper with @CANections who will be will be filming a trip along the beautiful Leeds Waterways.
Residents will be able to communicate with the staff and the skippers and to ask them to take photographs! 🦆
Still time for #arts and #culture partners to send activities for our #DigitalInclusion programme for @Artsincarehomes Day!
Activities need to:
🌟have a #digital element (remote access counts)
🌟be engaging for care residents
🌟be creative
🌟be free

For the final week of sharing images from the production of the Refresh Video Tutorials we will be focusing on images that are captured using the Rule of Thirds.
The basic concept of this is to place your subject slightly off centre in the left or right third of the image.

For the third week of sharing images from the production of the Refresh Video Tutorials we will be focusing on images that are captured from creative and unusual angles.
Will you be inspired to try out out some unusual angles when capturing images?

Refresh: Angles
Photo Credit: Peter Forrest
An untraditional view from a bridge over the canal. Often people will naturally photograph the scene directly infront of them. Here the photographer has captured what is directly underneath them, creating an alternative perspective.

Refresh: Angles
Photo Credit: Zaki aged 8yrs
This image provides a beautiful view of caterpillars. As an 8yr old Zaki was able to get extremely low to capture these caterpillars and being so close to his subject was able to enhance the image with depth of field.

Refresh: Photography In Nature - Angles
Photo Credit: Peter Forrest
This low down, close up shot has produced a creative angle and an interesting composition, turning a subject which from a distance might look relatively simple into an intriguing and artistic image.

Refresh: Photography In Nature
A beautiful image captured in the woods alongside the canal at Esholt. The trees, roots, fence posts and path all create strong compositional lines leading the viewers eyes into the heart of the image.

Captured on the Esholt Estate, the barrier sweeps round the corner creating a compositionally strong line that leads the viewer into the photograph.
