Lines Within Lines

When the moon gets to the right level it throw warm and cold light onto the corrogated sheets. The warm tones are due to a light on the main street which is filtered through a tree, the cold tones come from the reflection of the moon unfiltered, each of which run in lines diagonally across the image.

I also wanted to play with an optical illusion and composed the image purposely so that it appears that the image is distorted, stretched out by pulling out the top left and bottom right corner.

The whole image is composed of diagonal lines with this upright flue almost imposing itself with its upright lines making it dominant, hence the optical illusion.

Canon D60, Tamron 70-300mm (70's model), Tripod, Remote Trigger
Manual Mode
ISO 200
Aperture: f7.1

Minor tonal adjustments within Camera Raw without sharpening.
Photoshop to apply a Raw Presharpener and an Unsharp Mask to bring out minor detail.
