but it needs something. It would be an excellent backdrop for a Range Rover or a Lamborghini, methinks. It's just lacking that main focus point, and as such, lacks photographic interest to me.

I was thinking more like a woman and a man dressed rather skimpily. :winksexy:

I'd rather see the woman dressed rather skimpily.
kind of more into the technical on this one. Had some decent insight in responses. Far as skimpy women, i am sure i could find one that would strip and be a center subject around here for a hundred bucks (some probably for free) it really isnt the idea of the photo though. But i have no doubt it would make it much more interesting it is tempting. All this has for people in it is one lonely shoveler. And you would have to zoom in the frame to see him. Plus the quality of this thing is lacking i am kind of ticked off about. i was looking along the back wall a while ago and the back wall is chit for clarity.
 
so simply, when you consider cropping or composition. Are you looking at as for all sizes of print and viewing distance and online being of the same? Or does you composition and framing depend on the specific photo and size of print/viewing etc. i have noticed most earlier photographers that shot this type of thing, and some current that still do this type of thing shoot "the entire frame". But i havent figured out if it is because they framed it particularly how they wanted it to start with, or if it is just a methodology in practice for doing this type of work. Or maybe, they just looked at everything going to print and being hung and seen from a foot away. But here is where i get confused.

I don't really consider size or viewing media. I figure out why a certain scene caught my eye and determine what I want from the picture. That helps me decide what needs to be in the frame or not. Sometimes I'll see something and think there's certainly a picture there somewhere but I'm not sure what it is, so I'll walk around and keep looking through the viewfinder, testing different angles or including/excluding things in the frame. Sometimes I'll find the picture I'm looking for and other times, I decide that there isn't actually a decent picture to be had of that scene or object.

Are ya, now? Anything interesting? :D
 
Although there's quite a lot of sun in the middle, there's too much snow for -1 EV. With snow and sand try +1 or even +1.5 EV. This scene is underexposed and probably would be even if you hadn't gone down a stop yourself since your meter would be pushing things down anyway due to the snow.
