Nelson Mandela, windows and the letter Y

Reblogged this on FATman Photos and commented:
Here’s a photo from Graham of a different type, of something that I haven’t seen many of. Its a collection of juxtaposed but disparate objects and I think it works very well. At the back are those clinically clean-cut windows, those on the right especially looking almost stylised. Then, mid-ground, the sculpture of Mandela, massive, hard, dark, determined – very different in all ways from the paler backdrop, and not overlapping the structures in that backdrop.. Finally, the whole thing is finished off by the huge and only partly seen red letter Y in the foreground, which overlaps both of the other two picture elements, as well as being totally different from them – in terms of size, colour and content. This is a well thought out and “different” picture which I like a lot. FATman
