The main compositional techniques that I used in the final photograph were framing and filling the frame. I chose filling the frame first. By zooming in on the gravestone, I was able capturing all of the texture on the grave and the name that is carved into it. Then I chose framing because it lets you focus on the gravestone, but not an overpowering amount, and still allows focus on the flowers at the bottom. I had to change one thing about this picture it would be to make the shadows on the flowers look more realistic. Overall I feel like I was successful with this assignment, because all of the images fit together very well.
