National Geographic - Photo Sharing - Tango, South America

Simply Beautiful Photographs, Tips on Composing Photographs, Gallery – National Geographic
Photograph by Pablo Corral Vega, National Geographic
Tango, South America
Using a wide-angle lens is a good tool for creating dynamic compositions. With the main subject usually up-close, and right in front of the frame, a wide-angle perspective also allows for an intriguing background to add to the scene. This terrific photograph by Pablo Corral-Vega shows this technique perfectly. We are immediately drawn to the passion of the couple in the foreground. Then we get a second picture of a street scene in which the people seem oblivious to the intimacy of the dancers.
