On My Way


Cultural Image


This image was taken on a photography class excursion to the city. The image was taken on one of the breaks, when I was trying to get an image with an interesting shadow. This is a cultural image as it displays the urban life of a busy work day and the constant use of technology, i.e. the phone in the man’s hand. The compositional element present in this image is symmetry, and the elements of design include line and shape. Symmetry is found through the duplication and vertical flipping of the image, as it is 2 of the exact same image mirrored and put together in one image. Line is found in the man’s jumper and in the paving, but is mostly seen in the shadows. Shape is found in the man with his phone and suitcase, as well as the shadow they’re creating.

Edits:
  • The image was duplicated.
  • It was then flipped in photoshop.
  • The levels were then adjusted.
