The courtyard of my college is often used as storage for
anything old, broken or no longer in use. As such, this is often the best place
to find photographs. Today, I found… well, I’m not really sure!
While eating lunch in the courtyard, I noticed a sizeable
box with wheels in the middle, and cogs either end. I’m still not sure of its
purpose, but I can only presume that it is a discarded piece of art, as it
doesn’t seem to resemble anything.
I underexposed this image as the light was strong and I
wanted to create dramatic shadows. This picture has been significantly edited
in Photoshop. I darkened the highlights and lightened the shadows to create a subtle
solarising effect. I then increased the contrast and added noise to make the
image seem more aged. Finally, I sharpened the image. I find abstract photos
interesting, as it doesn’t matter how many questions you manage to answer,
there are always more to be asked.
