What Is That About?

Clearly, an exercise in composition for the 29 retired professionals (lawyers, doctors,
architects, engineers etc.) under the banner of a North Country photo club.

"Think different!" said a well-known advert, today it will be "See different!" To be put 
in the box, an image whose subject will have no form of importance but where all the
meaning will hold in the composition of elements — even random — to end up in a
purely graphic approach.

At the beginning, architects found themselves right there; for the others... it took a little
more time. Knowing little or nothing about the area where I live and work, they were all 
in for a new challenge, a new exploration in the courtyard of a local hotel I didn't know.
After thirty minutes, the good mood caught in and they got into the game.

My take...


Light is free… capturing it is not!

But… but… but I thought they were adding an organic element
to the hard edges of the geometric shapes, Phil! :ohmy:
