Thursday- Balance- Visual Weight

Uploaded: July 25, 2008

Description

First attraction: Dark window shadows
The texture on this building is fantastic, but if you squint you will see the reason this composition works so well. The two window shadows look as though they have wings, and the two dark triangles in the opposite corners keep the eye from leaving the photo. There is also a strong white point of interest on the left third where the corner of the building rises to meet the shadow.

Exif: F Number: 6.8, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 1/500 seconds, Flash: did not fire., FocalLength: 13.30 mm, Model: DCR-TRV730

Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed.
