Geometric Facade Symphony - Day 319

ISO 400, f/8.0, 1/750th sec

 This photograph focuses on a minimalist architectural facade in black and white. The interplay of sharp, horizontal and vertical lines creates a structured composition that emphasizes geometry and balance. My inspiration came from the beauty of clean architectural forms and how they interact with light and shadow. The creation process involved capturing the precise moment where the lines and contrasts align perfectly. I hope this work offers a fresh perspective on the elegance of simplicity and structure.
