Composition with shapes

The first part of the photography course at Madison is wrapping up. All three of the fifth grade classes have taken their field trips to St. Cloud State and reviewed their images.

Next I'll be printing 5x7's of their favorite photographs and then they will learn how to matte these with Ms. Bunkowski in art class. As well the photographs will be assembled into books for the classes and the school library.

Here's another image to share - this is from Ms. Benson's class. We were working on a couple of ideas here, the rule of thirds as well as using lines and repeating shapes in a composition. I thought this photo captured these ideas quite well.
