Photograph On Paper

"Matter of perspective" by Demetriusz Wenglarczyk
From the "People in Places" photography series.

To consult the rules of composition before making a picture is a little like consulting the law of gravitation before going for a walk.

Edward Weston

For me, photography is about how you unconsciously decide what to leave out of the frame. It's also about choosing how to react to the things in front of you. At first glance there was nothing particularly interesting in this street, but the world changed when I looked through the viewfinder. I felt the excitement.

What works for me here

  1. There is a perfect convergence of lines, as if the road, the cars and the passers-by were being drawn together.

  2. The tilted frame suddenly changes the way we look at an ordinary urban scene.
