dan_drabek Posted September 3, 2006 Share #3 Posted September 3, 2006 Well, the cup makes the shot--obviously. Good eye to catch it. DD Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
uulrich Posted September 4, 2006 Share #4 Posted September 4, 2006 Yes. Wilfredo this is another one. To a certain extend this scene really ask for symetry and rotating the camera is unconventional and again it adds. I like this one too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
vic vic Posted September 4, 2006 Share #5 Posted September 4, 2006 hi wilfredo i also lov this photo. as a ermark to the camera ratation.... the raotation itslef is "symetrical" - the center of the floor and the cell are in the corners of the frame. not that it is bad of course... but try sometimes not to do symetrical but still maintain the balance in the frame. u will see that manytimes it will create unusual eye catching dynamic framing. suggestion - think about it as weight and contra-weight in the frame. so u "brake" something but it doesnt fall - it is balaced on the contra-weight.

stuny Posted September 4, 2006 Share #6 Posted September 4, 2006 Wilfredo - Excellent! I think one of the reasons the cup adds so much is that it introduces cognitive dissonance of expecting it to spill. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilfredo Posted September 4, 2006 Author Share #7 Posted September 4, 2006 Advertisement (gone after registration) Thank you all for all the interesting comments. I was very aware of that cup and without it being where it was it would not have been the same shot. I guess "cognitive dissonance" is a good way to describe this and other shots I've done rotating the angle of view. What I am discovering is that sometimes boring shots can come to life with a simple rotation and it only takes a few seconds to shoot an extra frame or two. By the way, this shot was taken where I work. I had some workers painting walls and putting down a new tile floor in one of our bathrooms.

This effect is very important in this shot. Very well seen. I like it much. Cheers, Bernardo Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
