This is my favorite picture out of all of pattern and texture. this was a picture of the ropes on the side of a dock, in the background you can see where the edge of the dock is and where the water begins. In this picture I was less then a foot away from the rope, I liked the way that you could see the texture of the rope and how it is more in focus then the rest. For this picture, i was on a small tilt back,but above the rope. I did not consider the rule of thirds to take this picture, i just took it in the way that i felt it looked best. I also like the way that if you loo close you can see the strands of the string in the rope.
