Angles and Shadows

[Chip]

Some more abstracts. These are the same subject, from different angles, with different focus points and different B&W conversion.





Thanks for looking.

One thing you have helped me see, Chip, is they way our eyes seem to enjoy traveling around a photo. Too much activity is distracting. To little is boring. I've discovered that when my eyes are moving at the pace of a stroll is when I enjoy a photo the most. Strolling with these. Photo #1: I especially like the way the bold white lines leads your eye off the "page" but the dashed lines draw you back. That back and forth movement is a pleasure. Photo #2: I really like the sense of foreground with lighter lines and background with the slight DOF that blurs the diagonal lines. It's kind of hynotic. Sweet!

Lindy - Once again, you're able to put into words what I can - at best - sense only subconsciously. Many thanks for making some sense out of this.

great shots chip.....I sensed what Lindy mentioned but she step by step taught me how to view this photo with her comments and made it that much more interesting and informative!

I admire your Eye Chip!!! You have the ability to see Abstactly and to show others how to see it as well. I can see what Lindyanna is talking about, Of course I could never have put it as intelligently and clearly as she has. I learned something by looking at your Wonderful Captures today!
