The Power of Observation

The power of observation is a vital element for us in the visual communication field.  The ability to notice the world around us and communicate a message or feeling through our media is a true gift. It is one of our senses.  For photographers it is often referred to as our “eye”.   The ability to see and capture the parts of a whole helps the viewer see through our eye. This is one such image.  It was captured on a fall day at one of my favorite scenes. This was taken in a urban park with a historic pagoda surrounded by a mote. The reflection of the copper topped bandstand and the red maple trees is an eye-catching scene which is meant to communicate a sense of tranquility.
