The Photo Composition Challenge

https://invisibleparade.com/posts/the-compo-challenge
A covered walkway with concrete columns leads alongside a grassy courtyard filled with bamboo plants. Sunlight casts intricate shadows on the tiled pathway. A modern building with large windows frames the background. A black pot in the foreground, filled with cabbage, potatoes, carrots, and cherry tomatoes. Various potted plants are visible in the background. A woven wall tapestry showing the words "hello sunshine" and a rising orange sun. The wallpaper behind is a matching orange color. A large Pikachu doll standing in front of our children’s bookshelf.
