Questions:

1. What is your favorite composition and why?

A: The wet leaves. The emphasis and texture are great but the out of focus elements look super harsh and distracting.

3. What is one thing you wish you did better?

A: I wish I'd known how to adjust exposure, contrast etc. for individual layers. Some of these would've come out better then.

4. What is one thing you wish you knew how to do, but don't yet, that could've helped your composition?

A: I wish I knew how to use filters for only part of an image (Like blur or black and white).
