This is my POW for this week! I must say that the recipe for this photo is always having a camera around. It was lucky for me that I had a smart phone with a pretty good camera on it. In addition, another recipe would be always keeping an eye out for interesting angles, spaces and lines.
One strategy I use when taking photos is imagining how the camera would see the light in the environment. Based on my experience the camera captures light differently and therefore, captures the environment differently than the eye.
This is the bathroom of Barton Hall. I was stepping in to the room and was surprised by the light coming in through the window. I took a couple photos at first but then notices the mirror on the right. Then I took a couple more photos experimenting with the placement of the mirror. As I experimented I saw that if I angle the camera just right, I can make the bottom of the window on the right look like it is continuing through the mirror.
I took a bunch of photos and experimented with many compositions and later chose one to post process with the VSCO Cam app. I used a iphone 5s to take this photo.
