Lights and Lines

I was feeling very stuck in choosing among some photos I thought were rather blah but Taffy helped me see that lights and lines can be interesting. I think this is a department store about a ten-minute walk from my flat.
I'm glad you posted this one. The patterns of light and the splash of red make this 'work' for me as an interesting photograph.

You and Taffy are right on! This is a great shot. Love the graphic nature. Such interesting lines and light play. Love the strip of red!

Perfect contrast between black and lines of light, with the fab touch of red. I like the geometry, too.

@taffy @maaikel @karenpics @pflaume @mara19500 @rachelwithey -- many thanks for looking, noting, and commenting! I took a photo walk in my new neighborhood, looking for something to photograph and I thought I was just snapping something that someone else had creatively imagined so I can't take credit for that great splash of color. But truthfully, I took this building from many angles and many settings to get the balance of dark background and the whiteness of lights to show up.

And, special thanks for @darylo @marie65 for the fans! What a surprise.

Very cool! The balance between light and dark is very striking, and the pov/ angle is very well chosen.

@danielwsc -- THANKS! You make me feel like I did a good job, instead of just being lucky to come across an interesting image!

I especially like this one viewed large. It has a lot going on, but the lines lead the eye around so it doesn't feel to busy. Really nice. Fav.
