Rainy Days

This photo was taken on 9/11 in 2020 as a memorial for those who lost their lives in the Twin Tower bombing. This photograph shows a dark, stormy, rainy day in black and white where it seems nothing is in your favor. But at the end of a rainy day, there is a beautiful rainbow.

Composition:

The first I focused on when taking this photo were the water drops. The raindrops are in focus, but the background is not blurred. The second thing I focused on was perspective. The camera was closer to the road so that the road lights and the wires appear higher than they actually are. This added more depth to the photo, as well as instigate emotion. The next thing I kept in mind while taking this photo was the line of vision. By this, I mean any lines that lead the eye. If you notice, the road light is parallel to the wires, and both direct to the center of the photograph. The two parallel lines they create are appealing to the eye.
