In this week’s Photo of the Week on the Daily Critique Craig looks at a beautiful portrait of a horse and discusses the following:

 

- working with unconventional cropping in portraiture to create more psychological impact with the features of the face and to simplify the design of the image

 

- quality of light and visual unity through repetition

 

- managing local contrast to emphasize texture

 

- looking at balance from corner to corner along the major diagonal
