Circle & Lines Architecture Black and White Photo Button

The large open circle cut into the foreground concrete wall always stopped me. With just the right angle of view through the circular window, the zigzag of the fire escape stairs of the next building became visible. A collection of mesmerizing geometry was contained within and surrounding the circle: lines, angles, squares, rectangles, and triangles. Sunlight illuminates the background building, the square panes of its rectangular windows a mix of light and dark reflections. The shadowed foreground wall draws your eye through to the details of the black and white photo. 35 mm, black & white photograph. Copyright © 2004 Claire E. Skinner. All rights reserved.
