Composition of Compositions

My wife’s an interior decorator, she would say this composition is “busy”.  Well, it’s definitely busy.  But that was my intent when I “saw” this shot.  My hope is, for the viewer to experience all the “scenes” or compositions contained within by navigating the lines, shapes and patterns.  The composition is looking down on Av. Vaudoyer, near the Promenade Robert-Laffont at the Port of Marseille, France.

Cheers,

I work in Charlotte a few days a week and enjoy scoping out architectural pattern play and street photography. Captured this composition a few weeks ago from 3rd Street looking west. One day, consumer photo software will have AI to count the number of squares in this composition. For now, anyone care to guess?

My Photography Experience

Assembly Street Tunnel Composition
Assembly Street Tunnel Composition

This composition represents two aspects of my experience as a photographer.  First it shows my photographic “seeing” of what I feel is a cool composition with a lot of visual interest.  Secondly, it’s quite typical of my experience whenever I have my camera and I’m walking with my family.  Always in the rear snapping away, followed by a scurried attempt to catch backup.  Sound familiar?

Season’s Greetings!

Many photographers, including me, can sometimes be found roaming downtown alleyways looking for the architectural abstracts or street photography gems hidden behind the main street façade.
