Point of View?


This is a photograph from Madrid's PhotoEspana show 2006. The series captures and abstracts natural landscapes. Clearly, this image stands out because it is upside down. I supposed it's not a difficult concept, to turn the camera upside down, or the print for exhibit purposes for that matter, but I find this particularly intriguing anyway. As you gaze at the image, you first wonder if maybe it's a reflection into a lake, but then you see the road, but just a glimpse of it. The tree takes up most of the canvas so there isn't much else information to go on, there almost isn't a clear perspective for the viewer, it's disorienting.
