Concrete Perspective

From up high, perspective changes everything. Standing atop the Spoorpark tower, I looked down and noticed how geometry and life align in the most unexpected ways. The pavement below—made up of large 4x6 meter concrete slabs—formed clean intersecting lines that seemed to guide movement through the frame. Then, almost perfectly on cue, a woman entered the scene from the lower right corner, her attention fixed on her phone.

Through the Canon 5D Mark IV paired with the Sigma 100–400, I framed the shot so that one diagonal ran straight toward her, while another crossed it, forming an “X” that almost marked her path. It’s fascinating how urban design, when viewed from above, becomes a study of pattern and rhythm—how our daily movements trace invisible geometries that we rarely notice from the ground.

"A veces, mientras limpiamos el caos exterior, encontramos belleza en la simplicidad de lo cotidiano. Hoy, fue en la simetría inesperada de mi salón.
La luz entrando por la ventana, el reflejo casi perfecto en la mesa... como si el tiempo se hubiera detenido por un instante para recordarme lo hermoso que puede ser lo sencillo.
Los pequeños detalles también cuentan historias."

While walking on the Highline, I noticed the sweeping, organic curves of the benches and how the armrests created frames within frames. I wanted to capture this in an interesting way. Next time, rather than focusing on the organic path leading inward within the frame, I’d like to find a subject that could be framed by it, letting the frames complement the subject rather than being the focus themselves. #HighlineNYC #StreetPhotography #ArtInEveryday #PhotoComposition #NYCPhotography #PublicSpaces

Snow-Flake Side Dishes | Cleveland Museum of Art

According to the box lid, this set of 6 side dishes, or <em>mukōzuke</em>, are “snow-flower style” (<em>sekkashiki</em>), having mouths shaped like snowflakes. Their mouths, which have 6 lobes and scalloped edges, are traced with brown iron oxide at the rim. The outside of each bowl is glazed with a very bright pink over the basin and foot, and the inside is left white. From directly above, one sees a snowflake-like shape, and from the side, they seem to float above a rosy ground.
