Thread: January Assignment: Negative Space

About a month ago, we had a good discussion going about two cropping styles: using negative space vs filling the frame. This month we are going to explore using negative space.

And, for the record, Amber - I can tell exactly what that is a picture of. You look like you were inside your car parked in a driveway. Am I right??

Here's my first one, not sure if this is that great but I liked it...
