Bridge A small contribution to Becky’s square image challenge, specifically the “Geometry of Bridges”. Normally I shy away from square images. They don’t fit well into the themes of my sites. My posts start with a “featured image” nearly full screen width. The viewer can’t see all of a square image and has to scroll…… Continue reading Bridge
Light and Shadow
Light and shadows are fundamental building blocks of photography. Light is the essence of photography, without it, there would be no image. The quality, direction, and intensity of light can drastically alter the appearance of a photograph. Shadows are powerful storytellers. Shadows can reveal shapes, hide the irrelevant, create abstract patterns, bring out textures, even…… Continue reading Light and Shadow
