Rooftop Parking – Composition 3 / industrial
Tip: Take just one lens with you for a uban shoot – my favorit is the 50mm f1.8
Rooftop Parking – Composition 2 / Beauty in Ugliness
Have your “Zen moment” when searching for the right subject and composition. Get wondered about the beauty in ugly subjects.
View at the rooftop parking
Readily accessible and often free from cars. Locations one should visit.
Balancing the light color temperature
Balancing the light color temperature of the different light sources makes the difference. Location: the same as my previous post but now inside the building (Garage in Aachen center)
Golden lines and cloudy sky
Post processing to enhance the yellow (golden) lines, the green from the windows and the blue parts of the sky. The scene is chaotic but due to the yellow lines it gives a calm composition.
Facades 4x square
Lines and structures of facades are everywhere. I found these in Aachen, Germany
Challenge: Beauty in ugliness
Search for an UGLY item and try to catch it into a composition. Make the challenge more difficult and take only 1 lens with you. (e.g. the nifty-fifty lens = 50mm f1.8)
Three times three exhaust vents
Tip: Take your time to study the subject. Then capture the subject at different angles. By adding contrast, this mainly grey subject got some more saturated colors in the shiny parts and also the structures in the stone wall became stronger.
Under construction – odd subjects are beautiful
Look for odd objects and put these into compositions instead of making pictures of beauty
