Photography homework #2

Homework for this week was supposed to focus on composition--using lines, shapes, patterns, texture, color, and framing, and making sure backgrounds weren't distracting and trees weren't growing out of people's heads. It was a tough assignment for me, but I'm learning to see things like that. Of course, the COLD, WINDY, wet weather did nothing for my desire to go out and take pictures.
