Striking 2

I’m not in the habit of taking photos in public toilets. . believe me. . , but I was struck by the diagonal sunlight on the wall tiles and the orange flooring. The orange cubicle door gave the composition added finesse. There was no one around, so I took a couple of shots. There are situations that catch my eye (or the corner of it) and this space was a good example. The redundant pair of armchairs were plonked on a lawn outside some flats on Lothian St. The angle of the sun gave them some presence. I took a few photographs from different angles. The trestle table pub benches were stacked up outside a restaurant on St. Benedict’s, which had gone bust. They were so sculptural in the sunshine, so I had to take a few photos of them. I have turned them forty five degrees clockwise, in line with the light direction. The chairs and tables aren’t comparatively sized. I applied a couple of filters to accentuate the pattern of the material on the armchairs, the wood grain and the tiles.
