Description
This composition is a study of light and density gradation. The subject is the atrium roof structure designed by architect Norman Foster at the National Portrait Gallery. This shot captures the curvature of ribbed roof supports elements as the late afternoon sun grazes across the atrium surface. The illuminated structural elements are receiving direct sunlight, while the elements in shadow are located too far around the curvature to recieve any direct light. The angle of the camera also illustrates the curvature of the roof, as the structural elements gradate from an oblique angle at the top of the scene to a more direct angle towards the bottom. Photograph was taken in Washington D.C.
