Thrust.
The lighting of the photo really gives this ominous feel. One of the sides is well lit while the other side has this darker tone. Nobody really knows where this place was so it kind of leaves the viewer to think about where it is. Although it has been edited, the greens and blues really set that feeling of a darker tone. On the other hand, the light coming through the trees has this glow that gives off a glow that really shows how many trees there are.

Superfantastic Photography.
Photography is very simple from the outside in today's society. You take a picture, edit using presets, upload and done. But when you end having to take the picture, there's a lot more then just pressing a couple of buttons that goes on. It could be just a day of taking the same picture, or it could take weeks to finally have everything in place.
Starting off with one thing would be lighting. Now it is a common term and basic knowledge but think about it like this as well. Lighting involves reflections. I personally enjoy reflections, but they can be a lot more complicated then you think when you're playing around with external flashes. You would think that you could just, snap a picture of a car and there you are and ts perfect and done. Take a step closer and you'll notice the giant reflection of you holding the camera. The message I'm trying to get across is that there could be 20-30 different positions that you try out with multiple exposures and aperture sizes before you come to a conclusion as far as "the perfect picture."
Straying from the norm could be one of the best ideas anyone's ever had. Don't get too carried away, but in all honesty where would be with out people who differed from the crowd? There would have been no wars and no separation in society. There would be no completion and no improvement because of it. So keep in mind that if you haven't seen anything like it or done the same way to keep experimenting and investigating.
Taking motions pictures requires the right eye and camera, but you can get the correct lighting as well as crispness while the person is moving then this is for you. It really has a profound meaning when you can see what is actually happening compared to a posed shot. Not inferring the posed pictures are wrong, but there's something about a picture when someone is moving that makes this stronger connection.
Location is key to every aspect. The lighting and angle or perspective all plays part as well, but if someone has asked you to photograph them or something in that spot, chances are there's a special feeling in the air. Try to capture the entire setting as apposed to just one part of it. Try to capture the "essence" of the spot.
Trying to capture emotion is difficult but it can really help the image stand out. It could be sad and depressing with dark colors and shadows, or maybe a very bright photo with the sun out and everyone smiling. Whatever the situation you should emphasize on what the feeling is while you're there.
