Observing the Walking Figure

Posted on November 11, 2018 by Stupidity Hole

Another photo of Wei Wang’s Walking, as seen as part of Sculpture by the Sea.

This was taken on my 2nd visit to the exhibition this year.

A few people look at the sculpture and its form.

To be honest, I don’t think this photo would have worked if the light didn’t fall on everything the way it does in this photo.

I like the way that the light makes a few things about the shape and tone rather than the detail, but I also like that it doesn’t remove detail from the photo entirely.

This is my submission into the Lens-Artists Photo Challenge for this week.

The theme for this week is “Magical Light“.

This challenge is hosted by four people and cycles weekly:

Week 1 – Patti of https://pilotfishblog.com/

Week 2 – Ann-Christine aka Leya of https://lagottocattleya.wordpress.com/

Week 3 – Amy of https://shareandconnect.wordpress.com/

Week 4 – Tina of https://travelsandtrifles.wordpress.com/

This week is hosted by Amy and next week’s will be hosted by Tina.

I suggest following and considering participating, but also seeing how other people have responded to the photo challenge from The Daily Post ending.

Anyway, I hope you  enjoy.

    Love that you included the people for perspective on this one SH – and love the sculpture as well.

    I like everything about this image – also the perspective and the people standing in front. And the photographer of course…

    Oh I agree – the light makes the vibe come alive –
    and such a cool figure – sad in a way – Wang was really making some statements – and the three people in the silhouette add a lot (- nice entry for the theme)
