Connecting essay 3

I decided to choose this image from the internet of the photography Rut Blees Luxemburg because I like how symmetrical and parallel the lines are here. I also like how as it was taken at night, you can see life within the building- seeing who's in and who is either out or in bed. Another reason why I really like this image is due to the central-ness of it, the simple way this building is the only part of the photo and its the only thing the eye is drawn into. Looking around this image you can see how straight all the lines are, even the lines either side showing the horizon are straight- thus suggesting the use of a tripod.

This is an image I took which I really like. It was taken up London and surprisingly has no people in (for once!). The reason I like it is because it looks as if it was taken at night- due to the editing- yet it still looks as if it could have been. Even though it isn't completely central and the lines aren't completely straight, I still think they are quite straight and the building is very eye drawing. The building is really symmetrical and I really like this aspect of it.  

These images connect because they are both similar concepts of a building in the central of the image, even though my image isn't head on and at a higher level, I still believe they are similar and connected as the idea is the same. I also think the element of the lines help these images connect as it is the main parts of these buildings.
