PhotoProject :: Another Urban Abstraction

IMG_1963-001I’m in Toronto, which is a city of high rise buildings, carparks, freeways, flyovers and on/off ramps and even more high rise buildings under construction. So at street level there are not too many picturesque vistas. Which is the prefect opportunity to switch over to looking for something different to photograph, and lately I have been starting to see the urban landscape in terms of an abstract composition challenge. polar abstractionSo suddenly I have many subjects to photograph again. This view of a largely deserted office block in the evening is a strong grid that lends itself some strong abstract treatment. I first used the heat map filter in picasa then onto the polar transform in anamorph me.
