    I like this; what can I do better?



    My composition skills are a bit shattered since I got bored with main subject central, and I'm trying to include more than one subject.

    Here is an array of subjects and the idea is you are there, a simple idea hard to accomplish.

    Hi arith, I like it too

    My mind can't quite figure out what to focus on

    Here's what I see:
    - Window
    - "Secret passage" (which is cool btw)
    - Flowers
    - Books
    - "Coke machine" (something red in the mid-right)
    - "Power outlet" (something on the floor)
    - Gate

    The benches kind of feel "in the way" a bit.

    For future shots with multiple subjects - perhaps try to seperate the subjects a bit more form the background (contrast, focus, etc.). Try using lines to help direct the eye from subject to subject.

    I'm no composition master by any stretch so feel free to call me an idiot

    Your right, the red thing is a poster and the flowers I can't do anything about, but maybe I should have moved to the right as if getting up from the bench, I just like to see down the passage slightly.
