Stan was headed to the men's room so I thought I would sit on this bench to rest for a few moments. This man was on the other end of the bench, and, as is my way, I was kind of looking around, out of the corner of my eye. I thought that because he was hunched over, his body made an interesting shape. So, I had my camera in my hands and there is a screen on the back of the camera that can be folded out at a right angle to the back, so I can look down on the camera and see what it sees. Then I turned the camera toward him to see what the scene looked like and I liked the dark shape of him in silhouette, and the long white hall going into the distance. I snapped a couple of photographs, and while still looking noticed this woman coming from the rest rooms. That made the photograph so much more interesting! So I kept clicking until she got closer and then I stopped and put my camera away. She kept walking right over to this guy! When I looked at all the photographs, it was obvious that she saw my camera, but didn't say anything. Whew!
This is an interesting photograph for its composition of subject, perspective, form and light.
ReplyDeletePrimo! Thank you. Glad you see what I saw, that made me take this photograph. Sometimes I am not completely sure why I took a particular photograph.
