A Black and White Minimalist Photograph of a Right angled Triangle and a Square at Jawahar Kala Kendra, Jaipur


I have used light and shadow here to highlight the geometry in the frame. The core of the photograph involves two simple geometric shapes.

a) Square and 
b) Triangle. 

Also, if you observe closely, there is another square being formed within the primary square, because of the light and shadow game-play. The shadow triangle on the bottom left acts as the supporting actor like in films, for the main lead i.e the Square.

Keeping the photo to monochrome is always preferable when shooting Minimalist Photography as Simple Geometry as all the shapes and lines get accentuated. The visual impact as a result is better.
