Pic(k) of the week 23: ARCHITECTURAL ABSTRACT - Fujifilm X-100V

Photography is a great tool to clear the mind when there is a need to do so! Just going out with a small camera like the Fujifilm X-100V is often enough to disconnect from daily life. Such was the case when walking around a small canal near the Jameel Art museum in Dubai, when I spotted some interesting late afternoon reflections in the water surface.

While the majority of the people passing by probably had doubts what this photographer was trying to capture, I immediately realized there were some interesting abstract images to be made. 

In the image below, one can see a tall skyscraper as well as a lower building next to it. I was particularly attracted to how the warm yellow tint of the smaller building was playing against the deep blue tone of the water. 


Image details:
  • Fujifilm X-100V
  • ISO 640, 1/250s, f6.4
  • Straight Out Of Camera using Velvia film simulation
More abstract as well as standard architectural work from Dubai can be found here. 

 For the ones interested in Street Photography, I'll be conducting a free "STREET HUNT" webinar (using Zoom) on SAT 06 JUN at 1600 (Dubai). To register, click on the link here. 

Remember: "There is no abstract art. You must always start with something. Afterwards you can remove all traces of reality". - Pablo Picasso.
