Parked Car

Lights and shadows make it real and pleasing to the eye!

Nice Jack, simplistic I like that in an image

On the right pipe, framing the FIT, the parking line boarding the bottom half. Shadow angled pointing to the FIT and the white building with blue line to frame it

Yea that's what I'm talkin bout

... as it has the same deceiving minimalism as the image. Sure, it's just a parked car, in an otherwise empty and unremarkable spot.

And yet.....

Where the photographer steps in, and morphs the mundane scene into an open space for the imagination of us, viewers. Is this empty normality a complains for the citylife, is it an exercise in shapes and forms, is it a tale of dark and light sides with a lonely hero? Thanks for setting the scene!

Jack,

I can't help but notice the subtle resemblance of shape between the car, the white building and its shadow. It is as if the left hand building is a mirror reflecting our attention back to the car. As Wouter commented, the speciality of the scene is in its nothingness, out of which comes a strong photographic vision, which only you could have pulled off.

Love those diagonals, Jack.  Everybody and everything is neatly parked inside the lines.

Jack, and there you go finding these enchanted back alleys. You just make me respect a lot the hidden life in Japan.

A very evocative image. A parked car in this enclosed space seems to me like a portrait. It makes the car, that we seldom notice, seem animate, almost heroic. My associations, of course. Thanks for the memorable image.

A study of shapes and Windows,in very excellent exposure.

Regards.
