Wicked White Hats
Wicked White Hats - 12.8mm at f/2.8, ISO 80, Shutter speed 1/250 sec
I think I have writer's block. Either that, or I just can't think of anything remarkable to say about this photograph beyond the obvious. I'm well aware of the fact that the lines aren't perfectly vertical. I have several shots of this scene with perfectly vertical lines, yet it gives a strange forward leaning feeling to the kiosk, which I don't like. Composition "rules" are meant to be broken, and I think this is one of those times.
I didn't notice at the time of taking this photograph but the kiosk is also wearing a white hat! I shot this at Piccadilly Circus a few weeks ago straight after taking the photograph featured in my previous post "We're Shouting Out".
Taken with my Leica D-Lux 4, this image was processed with Silver Efex Pro using the Kodak 100 T Max Pro film type. I've added a bit of a vignette. Check out the preset file below for the rest of the tweaks.
