Monochrome Odd Shot Monday



I took this because I really liked the shapes.



The end of the staircase at a shopping centre, seen from above.

I love these odd shapes - perhaps you should have made us guess as to what it was...

Did you slide down it?

Good spotting with the shapes - they remind me of railway signals.

Wonderful shapes and use of the light. Top class b&w

I like these geometric ones you do, like the trollies. You have an affinity with line and form a Aileni with light and shade.That to me is very interesting. Two halves of a whole.

kden said...

those are some interesting shapes along with the contrast of the metal, black, and shadows.

Nessa said...

That is very interesting.

Roan said...

I can see why you chose this shot. The lines are amazing, including the shadow.

Different, but a very good shot! I wonder how many hands have hold on to those walking down...so many destinies!

I like them too, because the whole world is reflected in those tubes.

Good eye! The sunlight is an added bonus.

Ooh, I like this. Strong lines but at the same time fluid.

I was all about shapes this week too :).

Very good, I thought I was looking up, actually it is downward!

Daryl said...

Oh I like this a lot .. last week Robin posted a shot of a fence that had the same feel .. I love the angles and shadows and its just picture perfect!

Interesting shot. Fascinating how you can photograph something from an odd angle and it looks completely different.

Unusual shot that works really well for mono.

Nice combination of lines and lighting.

Intersting! I thought it was going to be at a swimming pool.... hmm.

Katney said...

It works best in b&w. Very graphic that way.
