I took this photo when my family and I were hiking up to Emerald Pools in Zion National Park. I was looking through all of my photos trying to find something that was perfect and this one seemed so perfect for this assignment. The lines that run through the rock in every single part of it naturally lead the eye to the lower left quadrant of the frame. The larger line near the top of the closer rock divides it into vector like shapes that are occurring organically. I remember that when I was taking the photo I originally had the closer rock over dominating the entire frame because I felt like I could not find any balance so I would just need to capture the shot. But I stood there for a while realizing that the mountain in the back creates great contrast with the closer rock. I do realize that is most likely all subjective, to me it may seem to have all of the characteristics of composing a frame. To other it may seem different. Part of me wonders that if looking for those certain things will help you see them. So, If I want to think they are there my mind will actually put them there for me to see. Just a thought though.
