Exercise - Vertical and Horizontal frames

The way I did this exercise was taking the same photo twice, one vertically and followed by horizontally or sometimes vice versa.
Taking photos vertically, I tend to place objects toward the bottom while taking objects horizontally, I tend to place objects at one third toward left or right.
I enjoyed taking both type of photos. They capture and emphasise different objects.

(1) The vertical image emphasise the left hand vertical buidling while the horizontal image emphasises the length of the bridge from train station.


(2) The vertical image emphasises the image of the building, the tree and the reflection in the water, whilte the horizontal image adds the left hand building to it which doesn't emphasis the same building that much.


(3) The vertical image emphasises the canal while the horizontal image draws the eyes to the bridge.

Conclusion: When placing a vertical shape object in a vertical format, the object will become a subject of the image, but if placing a vertical shape object in a horizontal format, the same object becomes part of the environment or scenery.
Depending on how you want to present the object, the format of the image will help you doing just that!
