Summary[edit]

Description
English: Stop Signs in the Road By Trevor McClintock

While waiting to cross the road I spotted this interesting image. I liked the way this image draws the viewer in by packing the lower half of the composition with detail, and as the eye is drawn upwards the image creates more space. As this was taken in a very busy area, this idea made sense; at a lower level where people are walking and cars are driving, space is at a premium but as the you go higher and higher, there is nothing but space.

As well as leading the eye upwards, the symmetry in the diagonal lines created by the buildings and pavements draws the reader towards the trees in the centre of the image, which are contrasted with the manmade stop signs. When editing this photo I decided to use a black and white filter with my own modifications. The black and white further helps me to distinguish the detail heavy bottom half of the photo from the top half.
