hi Sothy
good creative shoot this one, the light was perfect for this kind of pic, with strong lines, strong lights and shadow and...the lonely photographer in the middle of those geometries.
Well done and ... have a good day

Hi Sothy,
I like this kind of framing, making good use of the shadows and the lines. Besides, it was a good idea to include someone as well. I like it a lot.

Best,

Philippe

Soksabi Sothy,
I see you move form Texas to CA. UCLA is a great school, I only visited a few times. I don't remeber this area. I'm in Orange County so LA is not too far. Anyway, great abstract shot, great use of the negtive space to creat a sense of dramma. I like how all lines (the handrail,) shapes (the arrow) and the brighttest spot all draws us to the center of attention, which is the photographer.
I like it very much, in a rather minimalist composition, but well thought out.
Way

Fantastic Sothy!
It is for me the most beautiful of your series because the nuances of light are wonderful.
I like colors and lines and I think to a painter that I like very much: Giorgio de Chirico. His father was a Greek architect!
I dont know if you know him.
Cheers
Diane

Hello Sothy,

I would here speak about it cubism, a group painters with very modern ideas, but completely architectural images.
You play excellent with light and shadows, the photographer is a real eye catcher against the wall.
Very well done, TFS.

Best regards,
John.

Hello Sothy
A beautiful design with this architecture made of colored rectangles.
Besides with these colors you knew how to play with the shade.
The photographer, emphasized by the yellow background gives humanity to the view.
It is a very good composition.
Regards.
Pierre.

Hi Sothy,

I have just had a little browse of your gallery and realise how well you notice the abstract patterns in buildings. It is a skill not present in some photographers.
This particular example works really well, contrasting light, colours and shapes. It all fits together like a jigsaw, quite a huge jigsaw, when one realises the scale, indicated by the inclusion of the photographer!

Have a good w/e,
Bev :-)

Nice to drop by on TE and see what you have been doing, Sothy. Really nice, here, Love the different volumes shaped as much by color as by geometry.

Hi Sothy
Very nice composition
Nice game between shades and lights.
The presence of the character give us an estimation about the scale.
Best regards

Hi Sothy
Interesting upwards shooting angle and strong contrast on these buildings give an abstract geometry to the scene.
Well framed!
Greetings
