The play on perspective between the distant tower and reach-out and touch-me street lamp is quite wonderful and serously artistic!
Sandy Tolman
A sense of reality grounds it from too much whimsy and highlights the wonder of the scene.
Sandy Tolman
This street scene both skillfully told story and contemplation in composition. The golden-gilt rims of a spiral tower rise in a graceful spiral form from among the homes and buildings at the end of the street. The image is composed such that a vacant streetlamp's curled base and sphere topped ornament seem to mirror the curl of the the spiral tower in the near distance, its apex capped with a golden sphere. Via the science of perspective, the knob sized patina-ed copper ball atop the unlit streetlamp and the massive golden ball atop the tower seem about the same size. Towards the horizon the sky brightens from a dark and moody gray cast into a robin's egg blue peeking between rolling white clouds as if to backdrop warmly colorful buildings and the texture of tiled rooves.
