Creating Visual Tension
I took this image in South Austin on a Saturday morning. I was experimenting with tension creation. I did not see the auto coming through the scene until after I had taken the picture. I think capturing the auto added to the overall dynamic. I created tension in the image by placing two subjects on both sides of the image and by having the left side of the image, where most people’s eyes go rst, have less focus and clarity. I think this causes the eye to move back and forth, trying to nd a place to come to rest. What do you think? Leave a comment
