Block of apartments (Hong Kong) (Single)
DESCRIPTION
Hong Kong has many blocks of apartments and repetitive patterns found in their construction can provide interesting challenge in lines and planes in space. This is an upwards shot looking toward the sky with the individual apartments formed around a square. The diminishing size of the squares at each floor level draws the eyes through the picture and on towards the black hole. I found the graphic nature of this image worked better in black and white.
