Urban contrasts - colour and structure


This photo is the beginning of a new series in which I will be looking at building a narrative using contrasting images. One of the themes that fascinate me in cities is contrasts. Rio de Janeiro is a city I know well and which is full of contrasts. Developing the theme over the next weeks, my first impression is about colours, structures and nature. To me tropical trees and flowers are a subject, I can never get enough of.

Trees, branches, flowers, against a bright sky always attract me. Something in the colours are so vivid.

I love contrasts in colors. I find myself aften focusing in on them. Looking forward to your series and how you find and see the different forms of contrasts there are.
