A Corner Shot of a Pink Wall, with a Black Wire running across and with an Iron Pole in the foreground.

OK, so I am back with a Colored Minimal Art Photograph. I just surprised myself with that to be honest. 

Someone told me today, that I am not putting up enough Minimal Art Photos lately. Well, that is kinda true, as I am currently exploring Street Photography to basically reset my vision for Minimalism. If you want to have a look at some of my Street Photographs, head over to my Instagram Profile and check the "street photos" highlights section there https://www.instagram.com/prakashghai/ 

Coming back to the Minimalist Photograph posted above, it is easy to spot my love for Geometry. The Iron Bar is a Straight Line forming a Triangle and the Black Wire running across, is a curve. The edge of the wall is also a Vertical Line and of course, and the Shadow of the Wire enhances the frame. Oh ! and did I forget to mention the striking Pink Color of the wall? (all elements of minimalist photograph)

So, now you got it, isn't it?  This is how I keep Photos simple and yet make them subtly interesting.

Vertical Vs Diagonal Lines

Minimalism as Simple Geometry

A Minimal Art Photo of a Black Wire running across Diagonally against an Orange textured wall with Vertical Sections.

What I liked here was the Shadow of the Diagonal Black Wire, being casted in parts on the Vertical Sections of the Orange wall, almost giving a surrealistic feel to the entire Photograph. 

Sure, since this Image is all about Lines, therefore once can easily classify this under the Minimalism as Simple Geometry category of Minimalism. 

I thought a long while on whether this image would look good in Black and White or Color. I am usually biased towards Black and White, but this time I kept the photo colored.

Maybe because other than the Red Color, I like Orange as the second best. What is your favorite color by the way?

The EXIF Data of the Photo is as follows:

• Camera Model: Canon EOS 6D Mark II
  
  
• Lens: Canon 24-105 mm Prime Lens

Cutting the Arrow

Minimalism as Less Elements

What motivated me to click this shot "Cutting the Arrow"  was the Black Wire cutting across. 

To begin with, I was standing too far from the White Arrow, and because of that the Black Wire was nowhere near it.

I kept moving towards the White Arrow till the time I had the Wire cut it (visually) approximately in half. 

Note: this is a Look Up / Looking-Up Minimal Shot and it falls under the Minimalism as Less Elements Category of Minimalist Photography. 

The EXIF Data of the Photo is as follows:

• Camera Model: Canon EOS 6D Mark II
  
  
• Lens: Canon 50 mm Prime Lens
  
  
• F-stop: f/16
  
  
• Shutter Speed: 1/1600 sec.
  
  
• ISO speed: ISO-3200
  
  
• Exposure bias: 0 step
  
  
• Focal Length: 50 mm

Hope you enjoyed the Cutting the Arrow Minimalist Photograph.
