The colours are amazing in this shot, so are the textures!
The colours are what makes this just magnificent.
Outstanding shot, Motts!!
Anyway I always wondered which shots are Motts' favorites.
It makes my top 3 list for sure.
just to stop the ghost stuff,
thats assumably Motts painting the hallway with light.
=)
Excellent!
The first two things that struck me about this photograph is the colour and composition that is packed into it. The use of the golden mean (diagonal perspectives) helping guide the viewers’ eye into and down the tunnel is superb. Also the repetitive vertical lines down the walls and horizontal lines on the ceiling help create a sense of symmetry as if the tunnel is never ending.
The amount of colour in this photograph is also incredible to say the photograph was taken in an underground air raid shelter. There is almost a flow of colours that go around the picture in a clockwise motion, they also change as the viewer delves into the background of the image. Although this has likely been slightly edited it is a fascinating picture.
My eyes are immediately drawn to the two metal doors in the foreground that were once used to close off part of the tunnel. As they have been left to decay and rot the paint has began peeling off creating lots of weird and wonderful colours as well as bold detail and texture.
In the background of this picture there is also a person standing in the centre of the tunnel but it looks as though it goes back quite a bit further. This helps add to the viewers imagination such as; who is standing there? What are they doing? Creating questions in the viewers mind. Overall this picture reminds me of a scene that you would perhaps find in a horror film.
I believe the reason for the title of this image “Snake” is due to the scattered black piping on the floor in the middle ground. In the top third of the picture on the right hand side you can see where the piping once ran.
I feel that the photographs by Tom Kirsch really communicate across a sense of what it would have been like living in that era.
