I found it intriguing that there used to be separate boys and girls entrances to schools back in the day, so I needed to capture one of them. The red door in stark contrast with the sandstone added a bit of interest to this composition, and I’m very happy with how the texture of the sandstone came out.
]]>This shot is from a walk I took a few weeks ago in and around the Ramsay/Inglewood area in Calgary. Specifically, this bike rack belongs to Ramsay School which is one of the oldest in the city built in 1912. I thought the lone lock sitting on the rack made for an interesting subject and the shallow depth of field of the 50mm f/1.4 allowed me to really isolate it against the background. I added a bit of a graduated filter in Lightroom as well to further emphasize the subject.
