Street shots continued..
I like the amount of detail that is brought out of the image by changing the contrast and leaving the middle portion of the photo in focus it gives you a clear idea of direction, as you follow the brick wall to the end of the photo. The brick wall leads you on a journey to the end of the photo, which is interesting, because by changing the perspective and composition in a certain way, you are manipulating the viewers eye to think in that way, and follow your story instead of the viewer searching for how they think they should perceive the image. At the end of the 'journey' the viewer see an out of focus shot of a row of houses leading out of shot. From there on they can come up with their own idea of where this image is leading them because the background is out of focus, out of reach, you do not know if the image is leading us to think that this image is about being lost and trying to find a way home, about a journey to some place familiar etc.
