This image was taken during a thunderstorm in my home town. In this photo there are many opposing lines which make this photo have tension but also create perspective. The telephone pole cuts the image into sections with all the parallel and perpendicular lines. I used a slower shutter speed and moved my camera to create the light movement in the background. The perspective also makes the telephone pole seem a lot larger than it actually is in real life.

  1. Great shot, and good composition. There's a fancy word for what's going on with the telephone pole's oversized impact, but it escapes me.

    I also like the deeply saturated blues, and the way that the image runs the tonal range from pure white to black.
