fishermen

I see two fishermen but also a lot of extraneous, or superflous, unrelated elements in this image. These all place the fishermen in some relationship, ei. the pier, but distract my eye too much. One technique that you might try is to burn down all the other elements in this image but brighten the two fishermen. This focuses the eye on the subject of the image but still gives enough elements to keep the story together. Painters use this technique all the time. Light against dark and dark against light. It can help focus the fathers eyes on his son. Give it a try and please post the outcome. I think you'll like the results and I'd like to see them. James
