The logo is in a different place in both the pictures, so I need to frame them better if I retook them so that there is continuity. The second poster is of my model in an archway of trees. I like the perspective and how the path follows upwards, and I believe that if I have my model more to the left, the path would flow nicely in the picture. I again made the picture brighter ...
