I chose the photo of the Owl by Ben Goossens. I decided to actually focus on the owl because to me it was the focus of the photo. The original image game me a vision of someone who really enjoyed reading and had high intelligence would spend their whole some with their head would be soaring in the clouds all day. However because of either an illness, old age, or fear the person would never leave their house, with their window being the only way to view the actual outside world. The image of the "wise old owl" is what gave me the visual and the walls having blue sky and white puffy clouds gave me the image of the world inside the person or in this case, the owl's mind as they read their books, but still suffered fear to explore the outside world.
The photo I cropped is a focus of the owl where as the original photo had more open space, I chose to crop it close so that way the viewer could get a better look at the subject, however I feel the original image makes the viewer actually have to zoom in on the subject themselves thus letting the lines in the image do their job.
The actual photo is a long range shot, you can see the whole body of the owl, but also if a human were to be standing in the room next to the owl, they also would be revealing their full body. All of the lines in the room are also directing attention to the owl. The lines in the chair are pointing at the owl as well as the lines the walls make point towards the back of the room where the owl is located in the field of vision. The photo also establishes the rule of thirds. The owl is located in the lower right quadrant where as the window is located in the upper left quadrant.
