Urban boogie woogie 6

Urban boogie woogie 6
Looking south between Commerce Court North (left) and Commerce Court West in Toronto.

The PiP at top left shows a view from inside the atrium (the structure at bottom).

Another one of the photos I believe, for some reason, was inspired by Mondrian's Broadway Boogie Woogie. Actually by a misremembered version of it.

Here's a link to some more:

Strong verticals, great colors, and interesting foreground shapes! But I'm not sure what Mondrian has to do with it?

Well, neither am I, Bob. It's one of the photos I believe for some reason, was inspired by Broadway Boogie Woogie. I''ll clarify that in the description and provife a link to the album. Thanks,

Maybe it's the grid of windows that reminds me of the grid in Broadway Boogie Woogie.

I think it was possibly the idea of Broadway Boogie Woogie rather than its actuality which inspired your work, John. After all, it is "inspired by", not "copied from".

That is a definite possibility, John. Thanks. It is an attractive idea.

As so often with your cityscapes, John, there is an exciting chaos of lines, shapes and textures. This is terrific.

There's an awful lot going on here.........mixed perspectives, great lines, lots of different geometric shapes and super light and colours. I really like it..!!

John FitzGerald club has replied to Keith Burton club
Thanks, Keith, especially for pointing out the characteristics you did. That gave me a new way of looking at the photo. Some day I may even understand it

Those colours are wonderful, but are they authentic? If so, you sure live in a riot of colour.

John FitzGerald club has replied to The Limbo Connection
I see from the EXIF history, TLC, that I did increase the vibrancy, The original is still colourful, but atypical of Toronto, where palled colours are still dominant.

A lovely abstract shot, John, with a great point of view. I love the colour contrast, the perspective and the repeating shapes. All the best, Joe
