Summary[edit]
| Description |
-Added to the Cream of the Crop pool as most favorited. Zoomed in on the apartments to get a close up, and then cropped the bottom of the photo off, because it showed a bit of the row of shops under the flats, and this photo really seemed to work best when closely cropped, so as to give no idea of context whatsoever. The camera angle was dictated by having to stand on the corner of a busy Hong Kong road, but I think it's worked out pretty well. I think the slightly "dizzying" effect of the converging verticals and oblique angle makes the multiplicity of tiny but individual flats even more striking, but it may be just that they're compelling enough to look at that it allowed me to get away with sloppy technique. |
