Composition Exercise

I re-created this scene by transforming, resizing and painting over the selected components in order to create a landscape using the rule of thirds method. In doing so I attempted to focus the player's gaze on the front door of the house as it is the focal point within the scene, I also re-arranged rocks opposite the house to create a better juxtaposition. I darkened the foreground rock then blurred it to give it the effect of being very close. I also framed the house with a distant mountain to outline it's focus. I was impressed with the results as compositionally my version is more interesting to look at.
