    Hi Everyone!

    Below is my thumbnail for the November contest "Together." Curious if anyone has any thoughts on the composition. A few questions:

    • Does it draw the eye from the grandparents to the kids and back?

    • I don't have a "triangle" or "golden ratio" so any thoughts on things to add to make the flow better?

    Any help is always appreciated. Thanks!

    Josh

      Looks great to me. I might think about opening up the grandma's pose to make a stronger silhouette with her right arm, maybe add a bit of overlap between the characters too.

        @Matthew-Oberdier Good call on the silhouette. I want her to read as "love-y" as possible! Also, I see what you mean about overlap. I think I'll move the grandpa behind the grandma a little bit. Thanks!

          @JoshuaDages looks great to me. You created a great implied line with the curved road.

            @chrisaakins Thanks! I was hoping that would help guide the eye.
