What works best for the first assignment?

for next week, I'm asking you to photograph the built environment (rather than nature, say) for the first assignment... Think in terms of abstract geometry and especially light... where is the light?  Where is the focal point?

Some tips....

-Move in close, fill the frame.

-Eliminate sky...

-Find light... expressive light and geometry to fill the frame with..

-Don't photograph whole buildings from a distance... that's boring

-Do look for angles, shadows, reflections and most of all light!

Look at my video on editing for light.

Look at these examples using the search term, "Urban Geometry" on Google images

Take around 50 images then edit them to your best 6-8 and post here on the blog...

All work has an absolute deadline of Sunday evening (Nov 8th)
