It grounds the near wall in the gallery. I don't know if this shot was her idea or yours. When my son was her age and photography with Dad was fun rather than something to be tolerated, he used to offer up fun images like this one from time to time. http://users.telenet.be/philippe.orlent/PAW2005/slides/Wk40_3.html All the circles balanced by her horizontal arm just add to the fun. I have been rereading a set of notes I have on composition and so have been seeing geometric shapes in posted pictures a lot lately. ;-) Your pictures seem to have a lot of them (All three of these do, for sure.) Do you search them out or is it just intuitive in your shooting at this point?
