Week 7.

Siebe Warmoeskerken

I follow this Siebe on Flickr, and his landscape photography is spectacular. I have become really fascinated with photographs of great distance and space involving landscape, and I find this to be really beautiful. The space between the sky and the mountains in the distance and then  ground is incredible. I love the atmospheric prospective in this photograph, and how the landscape almost looks like a painting. The composition is incredible as well, and how the colors fit together perfectly.

The main thing that really pulls me into this photograph is the fog and how the lights look underneath of it. I also love how you can see the reflection of the lights on the road because it may have rained before this was taken, and that definitely adds a lot to this photograph. I also love the fact that the lines on the road help the audience know where the picture was taken, or relatively close to the area/country where this photograph was taken. The lighting is incredible in this photo, and how the streetlights lead your eye farther into the picture as they disappear into the scene. This photograph is beautiful and gives off a very quiet feel, but also lonely.

The geometrical shapes of this photograph is what first attracted me it as a whole. I love way the lines of the building lead you up to the sky, and the tone of this photograph and contrast is perfect. The darks aren't too dark, and the lights aren't too light, especially since you can tell that this photograph was taken on a cloudy day. I think that since this photograph was taken on a cloudy day, it adds more emotion and feeling to the photograph itself.
