    Great turnout this week, guys! There were some really solid entries. I'm definitely not well versed in portrait photography so I'm probably not a great judge, but the winner is buzzard. Really liked the natural lighting and pose. Congrats and great work, everyone!

    Okay his one is interesting

    Multiple elements!

    The idea is to have multiple elements or subjects that interact with eachother on some level.

    Some examples..

    -The cliché sign/billboard in background and subject that matches the message in front.
    -The ol' person in the background "standing in the hand" of the person in the foreground.
    -Can all be inanimate objects for those who don't like people photos (if you want a photo of your truck, go out and find another element to have in the photo to make it more than a snapshot of the truck.)

    Hunt..our judge likes things that so a message and of course is the king of candid ;)

    Go!
