Over the New Year's holiday I was out cross country skiing and scouting out loca tions for winter shots in the Rockies. I located some beautiful areas but my fal l shooting session has produced some "dull negs" because I am hopefully still cu ltivating a good artistic eye. After reading a couple of books on composition ov er the past two months I feel I may be lacking a "focal point" or point of inter est when I shoot landscapes especially with my 90mm. Perhaps some of you who are more artisticaly inclined would be able to offer some helpful suggestions for w hen I go to compose the shot. What I should do to create a main focal point? As a sidebar point of interest when I was out on New Year's day skiing with my dau ghter, less than 20 kilometers away a 33 year old woman who was skiing was attac ked and killed by a cougar. Hopefully this will not distract me from carefully f ocusing, but I'll probably be glancing over my shoulder every 2 or 3 minutes jus t in case.
