This one of best friends, her name is Anneka. She is very sweet and has a great sense of humor. I love talking to her because she's so silly and can make light of almost any situation. The environment in this photo was a park and it was earlier in the day so the light was very bright. I solved this problem by finding an area that was a little less sunny and I lightened it in photo shop. I made sure to crop the photo with the rule of thirds in mind so that the image turned out well balanced. I framed my photo with a background showing the sky so that it draws the viewers eyes to Anneka. Lastly, the blank background helped to created informal balance because there was only one figure and nothing else similar in height or size.
