I do admit it. I am weird. My 15 year old son is correct. I took kids to soccer practice and then went off for a drive around the local township... This is what I found - the local memorial garden and what excellent photo opportunities it gave. Too bad I am not equal to the task... So anyway which image do you prefer or do you have advice for a different one from a crop- I am open to suggestions !
If you are going more for perspective, try low angles and off set view. Ya don't have to go face on or square up. You can give the square image a twist. Something like this... (Lost the etching info in resizing... sorry)
Well, if I may... You only have 2 choices on these if you are going to take 'em as ya see 'em. Unlimited if ya are going to manipulate. But the two natural options ya have are angle or perspective if you want to make it stand out. For perspective, look for something low, ground level that you can work with. Try and frame it in florals, something like this...
