Perth City Skyline in Duotone
posted Wednesday, 12 November 2008, 19:30 (+0800), by Martin
When taking landscape photos, including something in the foreground of the photo will often improve the composition of the photo.
In this photo, taken at a recent shoot in South Perth, the rocks and pebbles on the shore provide the foreground interest, with the Perth city skyline and its reflection in the Swan River filling the rest of the frame.

I like these Pictures. The city of Perth rocks.

The foreground elements (rocks) really add a nice depth to the shot.
