Abstract Architectural B&W Shot Wins 'Photo Of The Week' Title

Looking up....By trusth

A very different view of an apartment block, captured in black and white, has won our 'Photo of the Week' (POTW) accolade this week. 

Simply titled 'Looking up....', the abstract image features strong lines and shapes that, thanks to the lack of colour in the shot, really stand out. We love how the sweeping lines of the balconies are combined with the other architectural details/shape that adds structure and strength to the photograph. 

The contrasting blacks/whites, light/dark almost make the image look like a print created by an artist rather than a photographer out in the real world and as a result, it wouldn't look out of place hanging in a gallery amongst other abstract paintings. 

It's a great example of how patterns, reputation and symmetry can be used to turn the ordinary into something much more thought-provoking. 

All of our POTW winners receive an EVO Plus 64GB MicroSDXC card with SD Adapter courtesy of Samsung. To be in with a chance of becoming our next POTW winner, simply upload an image to our gallery where you'll also find all of our past POTW winners.

Plus, going forward, we will also announce a new 'Photo of the Year' winner who'll win a Samsung Portable SSD T7. Each POTW winner, 52 in total, will then have their image shared in a new POTW forum where, in January 2022, we will ask you all to hit the 'like' button on your favourite images. Then, the ePHOTOzine team will count up the likes and our first 'Photo of the Year' winner will be announced.
