Default A question of perspective

Failure by design

I was playing around outside with perspective and I took this interesting shot of a telephone pole. Tell me what you think. I think it is best viewed at the large size.

Exposure: 0.02 sec (1/50)
Aperture: f/4.5
Focal Length: 18 mm
ISO Speed: 100
Exposure Bias: 0/3 EV
Flash: Flash did not fire

Maybe if you changed the angle of the pole from vertically to diagonally you might have a bit more of a powerful piece there.

Other than that good concept.

i like it, very nice shot, the only thing i would have done is either do what was said above, or, make the pole directly vertical, great idea though very clean shot
