Project 22: Curves

Similar to the previous projects, but here the focus is on curves.

Photo 1. This was taken in the Pentlands, near Edinburgh. I thought the gentle rolling hills were beautifully curved and look almost sensual!

Photo 2. This photo was taken in Amsterdam and is a subtle curve of trees with a shadow onto the building behind.
f/5.6, 70mm, 1/100s, ISO400

Photo 3. This photo was taken in Amsterdam, and is a bridge in a modern part of town. I chose a long angle on the handrail and you can see it curving off into the distance, but the main curve is the strange bird like necks sticking out the top of the bridge!

Photo 4. A bicycle in Amsterdam, with shadow. I thought the wheels both real and shadow looked quite curvy.

Looking here for a sense of smoothness (Photo 1), grace, elegance (Photo 4), of movement, direction (Photo 3 perhaps?)

  1. Another good set, but not as strong as the 'diagonals' group.
