Wall
Flowers (Metaphorical Ones)
On my Montmartre photo tour
we often come across funny things on walls, and here's an
example. It's marvellous really, because you have this amazing
wonky symmetry with the two rectangles of women on each side of
the horizontal line. They are also separated or set off by the
vertical pipe above the line and the crack-type thing above it.
To again play with all of these horizontal and vertical lines
interacting nicely with each other I tilted the camera to use
the edges of the picture creatively and accentuate the lines
even more. Finally I played with the colours a bit and ended
with a light orangey tint, as there wasn't much colour in the
original shot and it was a bit dull.
What you can't see here is how high up they are and you have to
wonder who put them up there! But that's for another shot. Keep
your eyes lifted - there are many surprises up there!
