The Above Minimalist Photograph The Rusted Curl Colored Version is actually the Colored Version of an earlier posted Black and White Minimalist Photograph titled The Rusted Curl.

I wouldn't talk much about it as the composition is fairly simple and I have talked a little about already in the earlier Black and White post The Rusted Curl.

Also please excuse me for my writing style in that earlier post. I was new to blogging back then. That post was made in 2014..... it was a very "long time back''

I have learned blogging over the years, and my writing style is OK now. 

 

Also do let me know:

 

(A) If you too like Rust?

 (B) and which of the two versions of the Photograph did you like? Black and White OR Colored?

Thank you !

Minimalism as Less Elements

Macro Minimalism is pretty different from the Long Range Street Minimalism that I mostly shoot. 

This Minimalist Photo is one from the Close Range Minimal shots category.

I used the Canon 100mm prime Macro F 2.8 L Series Lens here. 

Settings: Taken on Manual Focus of Both the Camera and Lens.

What prompted me to take this shot was the Rust in the Barb Wire.

The subject is kept a touch off-center on purpose.

The Blurry Background / Bokeh is a result of shooting this photograph at F 2.8 aperture. 

And Finally, The Photo falls under the Minimalism as Less Elements Category. 

Hope you enjoyed the Shot. 

Have a Great Day / Evening.

Thank You.

Minimalism as Parts of the Whole

A Minimalist Photo of the Snippet of a blue metal sheet in an old car garage with a rusted spring on top.

I visited a vintage car garage for a photography competition. The theme was of course, shooting vintage cars, and we were supposed to get insights on how to go about it before our participation in the competition. It was organized by "Jaipur Photography Club" and many budding photographers of Jaipur attended. 

I personally do not like much of cars. I am a very simple man and I generally tend to stay away from the materialistic aspects of life, cars are a symbol of that. Everyone started clicking the cars from different angles but I was never interested in the contest. 

They are probably not meant for the Minimalists. A Minimalist does not look for a reward, he basically shoot for expression and for the love of art in general. Anyways, I decided to hunt for my shots. I came across an old metal sheet of a car. Rust and the faded blue spray paint made for an interesting combination. I shot vertically and cropped the metal sheet. The crop helped me to keep the mystery in the frame. the mystery being, what that rusted spring leads to?

This form of cropping and shooting only a part of the entire structure falls under the Minimalism category, "Minimalism as parts of the whole".

Hope you enjoyed the insights, have a great day.
