A5: Perpsective: Great Fun


1: Immediate Response: The first thing noticed is that the perspective is one point. The second is that it is a short hallway with a longer hallway behind the doors at the end of the first. The picture seems to be well taken, the perspective easily seen.


2: Objective Description: It is a white lobby hallway with pillars and a balcony and elevators on the right and left side. Looking straight ahead, , you see two swinging doors, and if you look in the windows in the doors, you will see a long hallway through them.


3: Formal Matters: The composition has good colors and shading values and captures the perspective of the photo well.


4: The Story It Tells: A quiet hallway leads to another, quieter hallway. At least until one of the residents decides to make themselves known and yell down the corridor to a friend. After a few calls, both retreat back to their respective rooms and all is quiet again.


5: The Work in the World: In comparison to Edward Ruscha's drawings, my photo seems to have a better grasp of the one point perspective. His drawings seem to focus more on values than perspectives.
