beams Santa Barbara

I’m always interested in shadows. I find what you can’t see more interesting. Something like a mystery. So naturally I am attracted to shadows. Wondering around my home town of Santa Barbara, I noticed this set of rhythmic shadows framed by utilitarian architectural necessities. Using some active framing techniques, I force you, the viewer to make some decisions about this place. Where are the shadows coming from? Why are they that shape? Which part of the photo is the most important for you? Is it the shadows that initially attracted me to this scene or is it the power meter, or the pipes, or other parts of the edges? You decide, you play a role in this image just like I did. Your observations about it are just as relevant as when I pointed my camera at this.
