Edigio’s challenge is to feature images that show two rectangles. He explains “By two rectangles, I mean you have two dominant rectangular areas in your image. For many people, this is one of those compositional tools we use without thinking about it. These rectangles give balance, harmony, and unity to a composition.”
I had never heard of the idea of using two rectangles as a technique in photography before reading Edigio’s post. I was surprised to find many images in my archives that met his description.
Eleven years ago we were traveling around Alaska in our RV. All of the images in this post are from that trip.
The header image of the Eagle on a branch uses negative space to create the two rectangles. This next image shows how architecture can be used to define the rectangles in an image. This blue building is a good example of rectangles within rectangles.
For the next image the horizontal line at the edge of the water defines the two rectangles.
In the next image the two rectangles are defined by the horizontal line which divides the glacier in the upper rectangle and the water in the lower rectangle.
This sunset image is divided into two rectangles, the sky with the volcano in the upper rectangle and the water in the lower.
Many thanks to our host Edigio for this challenge Lens-Artists #305 – Two Rectangles
