New Photo Discussion 6: Building Reflection
I love the contrast between the building of straight lines and muted colors, compared against the funky patterns and colors of the reflections on the right. Smiles, Lisa - Lisa J. Boulden See Lisa's Basic BetterPholio™ Response 1:Hi Lisa, Glad you like this photo of the "funky patterns", colors, patterns, and lines! This was the product of one of my self-assignments in which I head out in nice light - in this case, late day - and just see what I can find. I love street photography, so a downtown area is often my choice of locations for a "following the light" project. Lisa, thanks for commenting - much appreciated! - Kerry Drager See Kerry Drager's Basic BetterPholio™ Visit Kerry Drager's Web Site - KerryDrager.com Take an Online PhotoCourse™ with Kerry Drager: 4-Week Short Course: Creative Close-ups Creative Light and Composition Read this discussion online Respond to this discussion | |
