Composition Feedback

Ok, so I am on the composition assignment. Be honest .. would this pass for geometric???

Please feel free to provide any other feedback as well :)

I would tend to say no. A repeating pattern, a non-repeating pattern, a picture that shows a scene but if looked at displays a geometric design.

Bricks could be considered a geometric design, however, there is that sign there that takes away that possibility.

For learning purposes I am not arguing, but please tell me where I am wrong. In the lesson it said a picture of a flower would be concidered a circle. So wouldn't the sign me a rectangle? The bricks alone would be a rhythm right?

I suppose it could, no doubt, but the purpose is not just to take pictures of geometric shapes, but to take it to the next level... always think about taking interesting pictures with shapes. It is more fun if you challenge yourself at each level. Don't think circles and squares... think... designs, art, something unique that one would not see everyday!

Let me see if I can throw up a couple of examples:

My city as seen from inside a cage:

In fact, this was the cage (lol):

So the grids have a repeating geometric pattern, and when all put together, form a circle. Do the pics give you any ideas?

When I get home from work, I will throw up a couple of ideas. :)
