An image here by Adrian Gallop taken on our Creative and Street Photography Workshop.

There is a lot to like about this photo.

Firstly, notice the contrast in texture, colour, vibrancy and maturity between the grey hair and bright red hat.

The composition provides lines and shapes forming a triangle in the bottom right, and the books give structure and context to the image.

Finally, the exposure adds interest and atmosphere to the shot, and it is also responsible for the shape.

So, an interesting subject and moment captured creatively gives us a really strong image.
