Talk about eye travel... What are you talking about shooter?
Ok...See the shape of the curb, left side...that repeats by the tree and shadow..then it repeats on her hood which bring the eye to the mailbox sporting the same shape.
See her hood...well that shape is repeated by the tree limbs all over including the background.....
theres a strange shape shadow from the top to just right of her....that repeats in the trees and her arms...
the bright leaves on the right side support the image and keep it from falling hard by the dark tree and.....
they are repeated by the leaves above her and to the left....
All this creates Eye Travel. Her head is at a perfect tension point on the visual map....
I would need a larger space to write more but this image is the perfect example of eye travel, the visual map, tension and shapes.
It works nice and reads very well.....

Thanks for the long and descriptive comments.
Not sure if I had all those in mind when I took the photo, all I did was to capture the cold air in the morning. The rest was just coincident!
What I have learned from your comment is how to read a photo and let your mind says all the things other than the main object. Much appreciated!
:-)
Regards
