Man and red chairs

Posted by Andrew Gould (Sydney, Australia) on 28 November 2008 in People & Portrait and Portfolio.

A change from the "glamour girls", today. Again from this week, but on the campus of the University of New South Wales.

I would like to keep in touch with members of the aminus3 community.

A very nicely composed image. Looks like a very inviting place.

@sherri: Thanks! It's a very popular coffee and food place on the campus. Study has finished for the year over here, though, and everything's almost deserted. Perhaps I can show it in full swing next year.

The 'Hidden Man' really makes this . . the pattern of chairs and mosaic all but consumes him.

@Ronnie 2¢: Glad you like that about it, because I could have got more of him, but moved over to get the minimum for the effect.

I like that you shot this at an angle just to shot a small part of the man, as if he is almost hidden away and yet stands out in his isolation, being a reflection nut I love the reflections, was staring at them trying to see what can be found in them such a cool capture

I love the sneaky way you took this, bravo, the red chairs against the grey are formidable ;)

Very great contrast between the lonely man and all the red empty chairs. Well expressed!

Just enough to announce his presence, but remaining secretly behind the pillar. Good saturated image Andrew.

hola Andrew.
ante todo,muchas gracias por tus comentarios en las fotos de fuegos artificiales.
no puedo conectarme todo lo que quisiera...
tu foto de hoy me parece un trabajo excelente,el protagonista(el hombre)solo se intuye.
pero no deja de ser el protagonista.otra cosa que llama la atención es el color que les consigues a las sillas,una saturación fantàstica
hasta pronto Andrew
