MY REFERENCE PHOTO
Before social distancing London’s Oxford Street buzzed with human activity. It had everything: buses, cars, shop signs and figures and it was possible to create a powerful urban landscape. On this day I was instantly drawn to the buses, the shadows and the people. Of the 50- odd shots I took this one satisfied all my requirements. It had a useful shadow on the left that created a good design with angles that help the scene to come alive in the light areas. Also there was just the right number of figures to create the crowd and, the lady whose red top echoed the colour of the buses, provided an instant harmonious effect!
