The prompt for this photo blog was to use the concept of balance to take a photo of a family/holiday tradition. This photo captures the balance between different elements—there’s a focus on the ornament, the string lights, and the textured greenery of the tree. The blurred background adds harmony by emphasizing the sharpness of the foreground. Additionally, the balance between light and shadow creates a warm atmosphere. The glowing light bulbs complement the darker areas, showing contrast without overpowering the photo.
