Photo #9


Similar to my last post, this photo was also an experiment in shapes and lines. I had noticed when I was laying down on my couch how the angle of the wall corner would distort depending on how I was sitting. I also like the series of rectangles and squares that I saw in this image. So I moved around a lot to capture the image that I wanted. I love the three main rectangular shapes in the background: we have the warm-colored red wall, then the dark doorway next to it which give us more depth, and then the door next to that, which has a white border around it. However, the several rectangles throughout the image kind of make it more flat or at least ambiguous.

  1. This is so chaotic to look at! This is a great exploration on the power of lines and shapes, and depth, and so on. Looking at it longer, I realized that the only reason I am able to know what I'm looking at is because of the shadows. If every aspect of the photo was equally lit, this would be absolutely ambiguous. Very cool.

  2. This is a cool example of an interesting sort of deep space. I like how the doorways and halls stack upon each other, it creates a very intriguing sense of depth.

  4. I like the experimentation with spacial affinity here. the white wall and the red wall are both flat planes so the layering provides depth, but limited depth.
