January 16 - Doorway

About the photo:

Props go out to my SCI coworker Aimee for seeing this sweet shot! We were having dinner at Bon Thai in the East Village. We noticed that the light coming through the door from the street cast a cool shadow on the wall.

Assessment:

• The most obvious element to this photo is the effect created by shadow. The light coming in from the street made it so the backwards text was readable against the wall.
• Although it's not intentional, there is kind of a color tint to this shot -- it's very green-yellow. I think it kind of gives it an antique feel.
• The last subtle element in this photo is the lines. I shot the picture at an angle, so the strong lines of the door frame and the shadow shape the picture and the lines create a nice dramatic effect.
