How's this for following the Rule of Thirds, not to mention color used to present a compelling story.
Obviously the bag is too big for the girl, which is what makes this photo amusing.
Another factor to consider is that the child has plenty of room in front of her--two-thirds of the frame--which leaves her room for walking.
If she were two-thirds into the frame, it would be awkward. Much better walking into the frame than walking out of it (that is if nothing is chasing you).
So where was this shot--at the Grove, an upscale LA shopping center. It's a must-go because it's right next door to the Farmer's Market, which is my favorite place in LA--it's a griddy old-world food fest with diners and international dishes that leave you salivating when you look at them and stuffed after you've eaten them. Don't miss these two places if your visiting the city.
