Light and angles - perspectives
One of the things I find most interesting in photography is using light and angles in the composition of a photograph. At Hopewell Gardens in Aiken during a winter walk, I found this planter which happened to be in the sunlight sitting on the corner of a wall. As I looked through the view finder I realized that in the shadow was a curving wall as well as a tree trunk leaning in towards the planter. Even with a square format (1x1) I decided that I wanted to include the trunk, which put the planter off center, but allowed the other lines to flow. Life is about light and angles. Taking the time to look at things from different perspectives, seeing the light in the darkness and learning how they can work togther.

Hello, I'm Gene Bowker and this is my blog, RustedRail's Ramblings! I currently live in Greer, South Carolina in the Upstate, but am originally from Poway, California. I've lived in the Southeastern US since my college days at Arkansas State. I enjoy traveling the backroads of America with my wife Patrice (also a great photographer), photography (my favorites), railroads, and learning about technology and how it will change our lives in every way. I've had the chance to work for a variety of companies in many industries over the years and had the chance to live all over the South while working in Manufacturing Management. You can learn more "About Gene" where I discuss some of my influences. Feel free to reach out to me at [email protected] Follow me on Instagram My photography page on LinkedIn
