Photographer's Comments I was wondering around downtown Ottawa when I saw a shaft of sunlight lighting up this mailbox. As the tall buildings were casting shadows the rest of the street was in shade. I exposed for the highlights knowing everything else would be very under-exposed. There was no Photoshop use in this scan, other than to make the frame. please view my images, Darrell, Ottawa
Splendid abstract with superior composition, Darrell. The deep black background and border really accentuate the perfect red. I love how the diagonal intersects the upper right corner. But I really love the fact that the background line is less than perpendicular... adding to the subtle complexity of this fine image. Beautiful geometry and texture. Check out the works of early 20th century Russian painter Kasmir Malevich. This is sublime, man.
