Leaving Empty Space.....

Click For Larger View
I've always been a quiet fan of empty space in photographs. Where the "subject" is just in a small space of the overall image. I say "quiet" because it "goes against the norm" and most people may not like that type of image. But it can really be quite interesting. Jeremy Cowart is a master at these types of images and of course any other type of work he does. I had the opportunity recently to work for a client that wanted shots of their radio tower. I saw this as the opportunity to try out that empty space type shot.

I'm not sure why I never shared the photo. The first time I saw it, for a brief second,  I found myself getting those butterflies as if I was the one attached to the side of that tower. If only for a brief moment, I felt more a part of a photo than I have in a long time. It caught me by surprise. It's surely not award winning but a simple photograph and it just happened to catch my eye. Not everyone will like it this type of look. But I just found it pretty interesting.
