Anatomy of lines.

Well, hmmm. I love industrial scenes and settings, but there seems to be too much of everything and not enough of anything in this for me to get a grip on what you were shooting here. There are many nice textures in this image, but it feels a little disjointed to me. My eye wants to run right up the line of rivets, yet I get half way up and get lost in everything else... or sidetracked. Or something. I guess there is some cohesion in that all leading lines l take us to the same spot- the upper right corner of the frame. Unfortunately, when I get there, there is pretty much nothing to see.

Thank you Ricochetrider.

Per Ricochet's observation about the line of rivets, it seems to me that there at least two alternative crops that may lead to a more effective image. Play with it and see what you come up with. In my opinion, the real value is to be found in abstraction.

 

Thank you Michael, I give it a try.
