Horizontalby *Glorielfwings

Photography / Urban & Rural / Other

I took this photograph just before going to work at around 7:40 a.m. a few days ago. There was something about the many layers of horizontal stripes that caught my attention and just wouldn't let go. See how many "parallel" bands you can count!

Very cool! There's so much to read in this image. The colors are amazing! I like the contrasts between the warm and cool hues, between saturated and muted colors. I like the contrast between the actual seascape and the painted one.

And the juxtaposition of the human-made purely utilitarian structure like the road, an artistic creation like the mural, and the natural (more or less) scenery of the backdrop quite poetic

The color divisions in your composition also correspond to the differences in the nature of the objects . Pretty neat!

I know!! The lighting was also magical at 7:45 am, clear blue sky, a simple filter and 30 seconds of photoshop to amp the contrast just a little.
But that's how I was able to convey the impression it gives me whenever I pass by. Its not a very pretty mural, but the color contrasts are just amazing.

Its going to be replaced soon with an actual board walk, which will make the area a bit safer and nicer to hang around, but I'll try to photograph it as much as possible now.

8 is a pretty decent number... I guess it varies each time I see it and the mood I'm in at the moment. I've always loved that hokey little wall just because it offsets the ocean so dramatically... and confuses the horizon line.
