A Crooked World

Sometimes, late afternoon / early evening clouds have beautiful lighting. This occurred at the local tennis courts and I just could not find a compelling subject for the foreground. These light poles were just too straight and static. Arguably, tilting the camera adds a bit of dynamism. Lines on diagonals add a bit of interest over straight horizontal or vertical lines. In his blog, Andreas Manessinger makes frequent use of this technique.





I guess it's not for everyone, but just one more arrow for the quiver.
