America
Location:
JFK
Library, Boston, MA
Date: 1999
Equipment:
Kodak APS
4100ix with aspheric lens in the pararomic mode
Note:
The flag and
the building are very huge. While taking pictures of a
monumental subject, some photographers prefer to put a human
or another small object as a reference to indicate how large
the subject is. I do not like this approach because a person
or a small object tends to distract the audience from the
subject or even destroy the composition. To compensate the
absence of a reference, I presented a big picture and also
formatted it in the pararomic mode. Together they
effectively convey a sense of greatness.
