This is the same scene that I did as a Polaroid SX-70 manipulaiton, except this is the "straight" version. Back swing was used to accentuate the horizontal convergence rather than reducing it.
"Back swing was used to accentuate the horizontal convergence rather than reducing it." Not to mention putting the plane of focus the same as the wall! Nice shot, it sure grabbed my attention.
Thanks Nicole and Thanks Mateo. You're right about the focus plane Mateo. As soon as I swung the back, it fell right into focus with the aperature wide open. Looked good too!
Like it too. Unlike the manipulated versions, this images begs so many questions in my mind...Which came first, the sign or the windows? Does the Coca-cola company know this is here or, is this just a tribute? What doe sht eother sign say? Where am I? etc...
I would say that most likely the windows were blocked off and if you look at the brick surrounding the white painted frame of the sign. It is less weathered, probably had a wood frame around the sign like a picture frame molding.
