New theme: LBM : Personal Photograph

I decided to go to Shoreditch to create a series of photographs, with this being my most successful one. I became fascinated with the huge selection of street art and the visual art which is displayed on almost every street. Personally , generic attractions such as the London Eye are constantly at the forefront of London that they have began to loose their glimmer. Which lead to me exploring a different angel to our diverse capital.
When taking the shot I considered different elements that could possibly enhance the impact of my photos. Symmetry and patterns definitely played a huge role in my composition, whether they be natural or man-made. From the pavement all the way through to the windows on the building, there is a strong sense of symmetry creating an eye-catching composition.
Whereas incorporating patterns in my photograph allowed me to create a pleasing composition.
Experimentation was vital when photographing my composition ;trying with different angles, taking tons of shots, deleting the unsuccessful and doing it again. This enabled me to discover what worked for me.
The last rule I considered was the 'rule of odds' ,which suggests that a photograph is more visually pleasing if there is an odd number of subjects. I deliberately framed the scene to have 3 pieces of graffiti and cut off any unwanted work.
