Photographer: Daniel Hewitt
Why this photo?: I chose this photo because it's a very strong photo. You could say that a weakness of the photo is that it isn't symmetrical, but for this photo that is actually one of it's strengths. It shows bold lines and a strong character.
Photo #2:
Photographer: Cameron R. Neilson
Why this photo?: I chose this photo because it actually shows what everyone sees when they look up when they're in a big city. It brings some realism that never really gets old. You can identify patterns in the architecture, like windows and balconies which kind of gives off the feeling that the buildings can go on forever and never end.
Photo #3:
Photographer: Randy Scott Slavin
Why this photo?: While Cameron R. Neilson gave a realistic and familiar look at architecture, Randy Scott Slavin gives us a more abstract and unfamiliar way of looking at things. Normally, we don't see buildings curving as they reach for the sky, we see them straight and tall, going towards the top of the frame rather than the middle. Another thing we don't see often is the whole city. Unless you're on a very high structure, you can never get an extremely detailed and perfect picture showing the whole city and all of its perks, the way Randy Scott Slavin shoots his photos, shows us the entirety of a city with an abstract and uncommon view of things which is refreshing.
