I'm wondering what side of your brain most photographers use and if that influence there photos in what type and how/what you think while composing the shot. The later would be hard to write down for everyone and take to much time to do so just do the tests and let me know what comes out.
These are the tests
quiz my score; 15% left, 85% right
the lady clockwise so right brained
The scoring goes as followed:
- each test is 50% of the score.
- you grade yourself with the lady test.
my would be 85% right for the quiz + 100% right with the lady because I could only let her turn clockwise = 92,5% right brained
Good luck
I try not to use either, unless I really have to.I'm wondering what side of your brain most photographers use and if that influence there photos in what type and how/what you think while composing the shot.

Well, for me it's 45% left side and 55 right side. Which has to be true.
In the left side I see the things I am expected to do at work. And on the right side I see all the thing I love to do for my pleasure. And because I don't have to work full time (40 hours a week) I think it's explainable that in my case it turns that way. The lady goes clockwise by default, but when I want to, so goes the other way around. Just need a bit of concentration. Works every time. Now......how can I achieve the same result with my own dancing lady:: Still figuring that out......

Interesting that most of you are keen not to overload the readers brains. Almost all of you state x% left(or right) and 100-x % right(or left). But by saying x% left/right it already is clear that the right/left percentage has to be 100 - x %. (And that I figured out on spinal cord alone!)

P.S.: Martin, give up on figuring out the own dancing lady. You would need at least 200% brain power for that one

Ah..but are you allowing for the standard of mathematics teaching in (English) schools these days

Well I must be operating on only half of my brain b/c I ended up a lefty in every case. And an introvert to boot!
I see it now: I'm artistically inclined, but it seems everything I create ends up with some sort of "order" to it. Symmetry, balance, logical flow, etc....
And I always color inside the lines.

Only 25% left in the test and the lady only ever goes anticlockwise which makes me 62.5% left brained.
Oh well, better than being hare-brained I guess.
Cheers, Kris.

The dancer was clockwise, however when I look to the left, focusing on the words, she goes anti-clockwise!

Problem I have with getting the lady to change direction is that women never listen to me

They only do it when they think you are not looking!
